Piping hot curves

When I was a newer quilter and didn’t know what I didn’t know, I took a class teaching Susan Cleveland’s “Piping hot curves” technique. This pattern is from her book. It was definitely a challenge! I had my $99 Wal-mart machine at the class, no piping foot, and had never tried curved piecing before. But I enjoyed the process! The suggested fabric for the class was a hand-dyed bundle from the shop. It turned out a little bright for me! I don’t remember exactly what happened to this top, but I don’t have it anymore. I might have put it on the free table at a meeting…
