Ok This is my first... I like it, however as you can tell it is not quite complete. I am assuming that I can only finish it my hand. Am I correct in that assumption? Thanks for looking! LLDS!

Yeah I surprise even myself sometimes. Here are 2 completed and the extra's cuz ... anyway what do you think of the matching doily, I could back it with fabric to add color and make it a hot pad. What are these bowls primarily used for? thanks!

Christine, you got your project almost done for today - you can use a zig zag or satin stitch on this - to stitch the sides up - you will have to be careful when you are close to the base. The best way is to stitch the sides together - up to the last section and then the base to that - then you only have to go up one of the sections from the base to the top of the side.

Well done. I always sew mine together with a narrow zig zag. It doesn't matter if the bowl is creased while doing this, you can easily pull it back in to shape, or maybe use a light press with the iron.

This is beautiful. There is a certain knack to sewing these bowls up. Once you have done one it becomes easier. Where is this design from?

This looks lovely, and as Carolyn says, looks like you'll be able to complete the joins on the machine. Well done.

It must get tight in near the base. It is not perfect down there. I will give it a shot!

shirlener88 by shirlener88 28 Apr 2012

it does get tight at the base - stitch it slowly.
