Free Christmas Quilt Pattern Part 11 ~ by Terry White

On The Eleventh Day Of Havel’s Holiday Project,
My True Love Is The Snip-A-Stitch

Finishing the Edge:

1. Use the same thread in the top and the bobbin of your sewing machine. Choose a nice edge finish stitch.

I use an edge foot because the stitch seems to look so much better with it.

Snip-A-Stitch is a great tool for any kind of work on the sewing machine. You can see the little notch in the blade…this notch gets you very close to the fabric to cut the end threads without cutting the fabric.

This is what the edge of the album cover looks like.

2. Position your album on the cover and mark where the folds should be. This cover is just like the book covers we made as kids to cover our school books.

Press the folds with an iron.

Here is the album inserted in the fold of the cover.

Here is the back of the album cover.

Here is the side view of the album cover.
