2. 09/17/2007Curves & Show 'N Tell The demonstration by Joan Hansen and Sheila Hixon was titled “Curves without Curved Piecing”. These sisters showed us many items they had made with this “new to us” technique.

3. 09/17/2007Curves & Show 'N Tell The purple squares were folded in half, and secured to the corners of the base square. Then the diagonal fold was turned back toward the corner, and created the effect of a curve. An identical square was made, and then two squares were made with the fabrics in reverse. They make an attractive pillow.
