The directions for the one I made were sketchy. I like the way you show how and where you measured your darts. I am going to give it another try. It should have been an easy project, just like the bowl cozy. I thought these would be great for Thanksgiving leftovers that we usually reheat by the plates. I am from Eastern Washington too!PinkGrannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13396185972224985608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3253708425418133346.post-86122802822277618922020-12-27T03:50:05.292-08:002020-12-27T03:50:05.292-08:00I want to make some of these but I don't have ...I want to make some of these but I don't have a walking foot.
