Oakshott WIP

So I learned not to do my laying out on the floor for the cat to play mousing on and am using an old bit of Ikea desktop to lay out the Oakshott pieces. A design wall would be nice - as would a sewing room in which to instal the design wall - but this is doing the trick for small pieces (these are 3.5 inch HSTs) and has the advantage of being portable.


Try not to look too closely at the banana seams and missed points.

I have to trim off all the dog ears, but I do like the pattern they make.

    Good to see you sewing Catherine - I never look closely at points in the hope that the universe won't let people inspect mine :-)
