Re: mags' stuff 2012
Oh, mags, I have just seen this thread. What an absolutely beautiful project! I do remember Rachael and her work with this pattern.
Love the hemming too. Congratulations!

Re: mags' stuff 2012
Thanks Lesley
Agi, I am just doing the gridding for two of John Clayton's miniatures (just over 5 inches square). As they are not that big, others probably wouldn't bother to grid but I find it much more enjoyable and less counting
I am doing the first two on this page - By the Canal and Lock Keepers Cottage.

Re: mags' stuff 2012
Mags that is fabulous mitreing of the corners and your heming is spot on - wish I could get mine to look half as good. A big well done on that beautiful piece
