    something like 10 hours....... :oops:. 1 hour only to take the tiny pieces of paper out!
    The hardest thing was to put the 16 pp patches together with matching points. Not one single seam I didnt have to redo at least 6 to 7 times, as it tended to slip under the pressing foot.

    You sewed on the sewing machine! I thought you would have done it by hand. Well done. Is there special patterns that you can buy that give you such a small scale?

    I use free block patterns and scale them down with the copier to the desired size.
