Altering a Stillwater

Nicely done, Star. **clapping noises heard**

Thanks Alan!

You had me at "I was just too lazy." A woman after my own heart.

You know, if it showed, I'd bother, but I can't see as it really matters much here, right?

Cool.

Steeking.

Isn't that a great word? It just means stitching, but I love how it sounds.

Be well,

Very nicely done! Panache is a lucky man to have such a supportive wife. In my house, I do all of the sewing...and knitting...and wearing of the kilts. Maybe my wife will mow the yard this weekend for me.... =)

Regards,

Moon

Well done M'lady - and nice fingernail polish too!

[Kiltman]

It does look a lot better, or is it the guy wearing that looks better? By the way, nice fingernail polish too.

Very cool thread, thanks!!

Thanks Panache and FHCAG. However, even though I own Barb's book, I'm apprehensive about basting and terrified of steeking--it must involve the loss of one's fingertips...

[The F-H.C.A.G.]

Not the loss of fingertips, just the piercing of said appendages!

Be well,

My acrylics really need repressed. I think the main issue for me is I am daunted by the basting, I am not really that scared of the ironing, just the sewing.

Excellent post. Thanks for sharing the process.

I made up my mind to baste and press my kilt today, and realized my wife too my table that I use if I need to sew something. Arg.
