kkkkaty said... wow, that is a work of art! Nice job! I was just reading a book titled "Linen and Cotton", and the author suggests cutting larger seam allowances with ravelly fabric. Based on your experience, if I ever sew with dupioni, I will try that trick. Thanks for sharing your beautiful project. 4/23/07 2:48 PM

I'll go over to the discussion you've got going on this to discuss the pintucking not working with the foot you bought - but nevertheless, it may have been more work to fold and stitch, but it def looks to be worth it. I hope your niece treasures it. 4/23/07 3:27 PM
