I finished sewing the handiest little pincushion. The pattern comes from Anna Maria Horner's Seams to Me book. If you decide to tackle this project make sure you read the corrections for the project on her website. I had to make some adjustments, meaning I had to exercise the math part of my brain (scary) figuring out circumference and I even used Pi. What's really weird is that I enjoyed it, most likely because there were some really cute results at the end of all that math.
And another project completed. The only math needed for the sewing machine cover was measuring-easier math and more cute results! This was a Home Ec. class project. There's my handy little pincushion in the background. Both of these projects were well worth the effort, the process was just as enjoyable as the finished results.
