Handkerchiefs...

Post by JMG »

Screwing too many things up the last day or two in the workshop. Quite perturbed. So, decided to sew some handkerchiefs. Hard to screw them up...

You need a pet to relax.

I recommend a cassowary.

Why would I pet one? They are b-holes that eat all the tomatoes out of my garden.

Good point.

A jaguar, then.

Pick one up in Mexico on your way back to PNG. (You might have to reserve an extra seat, but that's no biggie.)

Thanks, bud. I just sewed a top stitch with the two layers on the wrong side and them flipped them and finished the edges with a zigzag stitch.

What's the reason for the quilting stitch?

Purely decorative.
