A Little More Fall Sewing with a sprinkle of holiday cheer

Once I finished this one, I thought “why not make another one with left over pieces” ….

When I made the first on of these A little fall sewing, I used a precut – 5″ pack that I had there.

I sewed from corner to corner to make the HST’s.  What is left over is a little smaller triangle.  So, since I had so many of those, I might as well use them up.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


I did try a something different when I made these ones, rather then leaving a section of the edge open, I opened an internal seam.

Then when I did the SITD (stitch in the ditch) I made sure to stitch on the side that had the material so that it closed off the seam.
It worked out so much nicer this way – I know seems weird, but it really made a difference. Closing the edge seems are so difficult.
