Dear Friends,
I'm currently working on a narrow point ground edging where the
actual point ground is only 7 pins diagonally. I've always

I found that when I pinned holes
Jacquie,
If you don't pin at all you should get hexagons. I have done this
on simple patterns, just pinning the catch pins at the foot edge and
