A Choice of Methods

Sew by hand while you watch TV, or sew by machine—your choice.

Joseph's Coat is perfect perfect for Inklingo and a great way to use up scraps. With the new size, you can print 3 melons or 1 of the background shape on a 5 x 5 charm. (I cut the freezer paper 5.25 x 5.25.)

The curves are so gentle that there is no need to clip. Matching marks printed on the fabric and an unusual pressing strategy make this design perfect for everyone.

If you are looking for something unusual, impressive, and easy to sew, this is it!

Love the lines. Quilt more!
