Curly Clam...so cool!

These Curly Clams
are almost as pretty as the 
Feather Clam..
ALMOST!

(I LOVE Feathers!)

So,
Here is a sample of the 
Curly Clam
stitched out


This is done in a variegated thread...
Isn't it FUN?!

Here are instruction...

Now, let me add a tip!

Look at #3...
notice how the clam ended on the left side.
This is where you start your curls.
Notice the direction the curls go in...
When you end on the left side of you clam before you start the curls,
your curls will curl to the left.
When you end on the right side of your clam before you start the curls,
your curls will curl to the right.
This is a "natural" flow.

If
you find the opposite
to be true for you...
Go with it!
This IS NOT about you doing things
MY WAY!
This is about you learning how to do new things.
We ALL learn differently!
Our hand writing isn't the same!
Our brains EACH work differently!
YOU do what works BEST for YOU!!!

Here is the stitched out section of my book.

We now have 2 full pages for our book!
8 different ways to make Clams!
WOW!!!

Ready to move on?
We're moving out of clams!
I like clams...
But, there's so many other
great designs
we need to cover!

Stitch the pieces of life together!
They make a BEAUTIFUL quilt!!!
