I've returned to the traditional casing-and-elastic method.Utahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06011335110798185030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-296724601340557264.post-73843912492604787042010-09-13T16:57:54.251-04:002010-09-13T16:57:54.251-04:00Nice work!

I stick to Betzina on flys regardless of the pattern, it's just too predictable and always comes out great. I keep hoping Ottobre will put a tutorial on their blog about the fly-zip installation, because I'm baffled by it. Maybe I'll start a campaign.....<br /><br />These are cute, btw, and good work re-using all the pieces! My kind of project!Beangirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10402852482784879141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-296724601340557264.post-49883522702182790122010-09-13T09:12:37.895-04:002010-09-13T09:12:37.895-04:00They look really cute.

There are so many ways to reconstruct - it's fascinating to see the different options. :)Tawnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00597828834604436658noreply@blogger.com
