It looks like the SITD foot worked really well too. I think I might even have a foot like that , but never used it.<br />All the springtime photos you took are so lovely. My favorite are the hellebores - I love how delicate they are and how you need to be observant to notice them. I too think about old flowers that way - especially ones that have survived on their own in old gardens. I grew up in an old farmhouse and we were blessed that someone generations before had been an enthusiastic gardener. <br /> Lara B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15135992633781076268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5042289181469558257.post-14279798704282205042015-04-18T15:03:13.959-04:002015-04-18T15:03:13.959-04:00I like the cording you put on your pillow - I neve...I like the cording you put on your pillow - I never thought of gathering it on the cording!

I was afraid with a side-pressed seam that it might come close, but not quite get it. I really should have done a test patch, but I was hurrying. It worked well with the seams pressed open, but that's a little bit of a pain for me with scant 1/4" seams, and I can't imagine doing it with an entire quilt. <br /><br />So know we have two examples of how to use it, and what works. I will be jumping over to the side-pressed team from now on as that's my usual method anyhow. <br /><br />Happy Spring to you, Rebecca, and take my comments on your blog with cheer. It was before I'd had my coffee. You're an amazing blogger!<br /><br />JulieJuliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02834496271292973632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5042289181469558257.post-59616285321591942312015-04-18T05:30:03.232-04:002015-04-18T05:30:03.232-04:00Such a pretty cushion!

I agree that the heirloom variety is very special! As for the stitch-in-the-ditch foot, I have a similar foot for my Bernina and I think it works even better when the seams are pressed to one side because the blade in the center of the foot rides along right next to the seam hump and automatically shifts when you cross a seam and the seam allowance is on the other side. It's hard to explain, but give it a try with seams pressed to one side next time. I think you'll like how it works for you. Congratulations on your pillow finish and happy Spring!Rebecca Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14801489818836195754noreply@blogger.com
