Yeah, this is hard! Has anyone else undertaken it? Wanna show me your finished projects? I have all the pieces cut and basting done and I'm halfway through the smallest ring. : wipes sweat :

Well, back to work! I'll show pictures if I ever finish!

Here's a link to my blog entry with the pictures: Stacker

No one has attempted it? I got the first ring done and it was HARD but I feel the next one will be MUCH easier and nicer looking. The tiny one isn't bad but I MIGHT re-do it at the end to make it nicer if the others look better

Looks like a cute project!

I bought that pattern to make a bunch of stackers for the baby boom we have had amongst our friends and family.

I do NOT want to hear how hard it is!!!!

I just picked up fabric to make the first one.

What exactly is so difficult? Is it because its fiddly? I'll take any advice I can get.

oh man! I have the pattern and have everything cut out, but haven't started on putting it together yet...it is on my to do list, though...I too was hoping to make them for a bunch of shower gifts. Why was it hard? Any tips to help out??

[StoriesInTheSoil]

The instructions are VERY weirdly written and there are a lot of pattern pieces. Also, three words: Sew-In Interfacing. Oy vey!

I'm doing alright on it. I was sick and didn't work on it for nearly a week but I got a lot done tonight. Pictures soo.

My friend made some. You can see pics here:

She said they were HARD and frustrating the first time she made them.

I'm so glad to see a picture of this in some size context! I have been looking at photos of the stackers and wondering why someone would want an enormous pile of stacking cushions in their house

[StoriesInTheSoil]

I am FINISHED! ::: Just in time to put it in the easter basket! Oh I'm so relieved. I had been neglecting this project for too long and finally got my act together last night to start finishing it up. Stuffing was a pain and had to be re-done about 3 times for each ring. Anyway, I posted pictures on my blog, tell me what you think!!

Gorgeous!

What a gorgeous project!

[StoriesInTheSoil]

Thank you! It isn't necessarily "hard" per se but it is so time consuming! I'm glad the baby likes it

[jt'smum]

That is awesome! I am very jealous of all you crafty moms. Now I must learn to sew, I want one for my DD.

[dds07]

I've got the pattern, but haven't started...hopefully I can benefit from other people's tips!! Let me know if there is any thing else to make it more easy to understand

[NiteNicole]

Those are so beautiful.

i'm impressed - I've heard enough about this pattern that I was intimidated. Maybe I'll give it a try after all.

great job!
