I’m two diapers into my diaper-making project, and I’ve hit a snag. I’ve realized that I can’t serge around a sharp curve properly! I’m sure with more practice I’ll get better at it, but man is it difficult!
I’m using Babyville Boutique products and patterns, and so far, I’m loving them. There are still a few more techniques in their book, Cloth Diapers Made Easy, that I’d like to try before I write a full review. I will say that so far, I’m quite impressed with both their products and their customer service.
Here’s a little preview to what I’ve made so far:

Modified All-In-One:
This last diaper is where the problems have come in. I’ve used Babyville Boutique’s basic pattern, but altered it by adding in soaker pads to make it a different style All-In-One. For the life of me, I can’t figure out how to properly serge the round corners at the end of the soakers! Each corner I’ve done (I’ve already made up several more soakers like these for my next few diapers), I’ve had to serge part of the curve, take the fabric out, then feed it back through to get the other half of the curve. I haven’t gotten any better yet… Not only that, but I’ve googled it and come up pretty much empty handed as far as advice goes.
I know it’s possible to serge around a sharp curve, so tell me: What are your best tips for serging around curves?

It’s finally online! Our Winter 2012 Class schedule was completed a bit later than we would have liked, but it was worth the wait! 
We’ve still got great prices on magnifiers, calendars, and kits that make perfect stocking stuffers as well. And if you’re really having a hard time coming up with just the right gift, why not an A Great Notion gift card – they’re available in any denomination you’d like!
