There are channels right against the seam lines on all the pieces. When I sewed those channels I sewed the side next to the seam just inside the 3/8 seam allowance line, then when I sewed the seams connecting the pieces I put the needle just outside that outer channel.
I guess I could have just sewn the pieces together and then sewn those channels, but I didn't. Now the question is do I insert boning then tuck the threads away, or do I tuck them away before I slide the reed in? Maybe it doesn't make a difference, but I'm sure it does. Anyone with more experience know if it's preferable to do one before the other?

I don't know which is better, but you have some nice pattern matching going on with those chickens!
ReplyDeleteAt the center front? I wish I could claim expert print matching, but that piece is cut on a fold. When I realized this stays pattern is one of the few pattern where the center front can be cut on a fold I thought I should take advantage of it and use the rooster Toile.
