Remembered what you showed me and did some steps your way. It made more sense, so I am grateful you taught me your way first. Otherwise it would be frustrating and in the end it was a case of sewing without looking at the instructions. The binding on the outside would be much more user friendly for newbies. Love the tree, fall is here!Maggiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09640003667513907210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4410268638207819650.post-39344955185143616592020-10-01T04:46:27.888-04:002020-10-01T04:46:27.888-04:00Ah, yes, it does depend how experienced the maker ...Ah, yes, it does depend how experienced the maker is, that’s so true! I mostly don’t follow instructions, once I’ve cut out all the pieces I’m off and mostly work the way I know. I love the chipmunk and the sleepy fox! Temperatures here are getting lower too but no frost yet, thank goodness. I think we had 4°C a few nights ago. Still have tomatoes and runner beans growing!<br />Nice to get the glimpse of the fall colours.<br />Keep safe and well!<br />Hugs,<br />Barbara xxFlashinScissorshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06408946289711452871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4410268638207819650.post-58545468018082399502020-09-30T13:35:52.379-04:002020-09-30T13:35:52.379-04:00Oh the colours here are splendid aren't they? ...Oh the colours here are splendid aren't they? Here on Lake Erie they are just starting. We haven't had any frosts; don't usually have to worry about that until mid-October :-) I'm sorry to hear about the disappointing SAL, but I love how your case turned out!

Love those fall colors! Here in Southern New Mexico, I used burlap coffee bags to protect my plants...sometimes it works, sometimes not. I'm also curious how you use your curtains.... :)Miaisminehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07657955150576729566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4410268638207819650.post-42529568865790286592020-09-27T12:06:34.148-04:002020-09-27T12:06:34.148-04:00This style of bag (I guess train cases?) have alwa...This style of bag (I guess train cases?) have always been my favorite. I've followed a few patterns, and you can always tell who is experienced with bag-making via the techniques used, and who, for some reason, makes life difficult :) I'm loving your fabrics, too!Bethanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00170032696624433205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4410268638207819650.post-29432898948539501932020-09-27T06:10:54.070-04:002020-09-27T06:10:54.070-04:00Beautiful finish on your Mini Maker Case!

Here, we are3 in form, and it has reached some places already, a massive storm, snow to sea level , gale winds, and torrential rain. A high of about 2C tomorrow way further south. Curtains, as good as any frost cloth.Nancy Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11854698513524662527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4410268638207819650.post-44234207737115410662020-09-26T18:25:25.723-04:002020-09-26T18:25:25.723-04:00Such beautiful colours - thank you!

Morning glories are a weed here; our winters aren't severe enough to knock them out, so they grow all year round and swallow fences and buildings......foxes are a pest here too, but I like your chipmunk bag.

I have often scratched my head trying to figure out why instructions are not written clearly. It makes you wonder if the designer used pattern testers.<br />What do you do with curtains to protect your tomato plants?KatieQhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03402499142649295188noreply@blogger.com
