Re: Playing with Pegboard

My husband made my peg board for me. We used 2X2 pieces of left over wood for the spacers. It works great, you just have to be careful of the placement of the screws when you screw the spacers to the peg board so that those screws are not in the way of screwing the finished board to the studs in the wall.

Mine isn't painted yet and I haven't bought the additional pegs I need. I was originally going to keep all my thread on the board, but I have since changed my mind because of the dust that would collect on it. Now I am going to keep all my sewing accessories. It is great to be able to quickly find all those things when you need them.

Re: Teach Yourself to Sew: Bias Binding

Thank you, this was great. Now I know all the mistakes I made when I tried to sew bias binding on placemats I made. They turned out so terrible I only finished three and they just kept getting worse. Can you elaborate on how to turn a curve?
