Ahhhh I see what I did!! I was going around, but the other way, so I always had a turn to deal with lol thank you so much!!

Thank you! So I started the right way... is there a tip you can give for how to line up the edges in the best way possible? Turning the corners seems to be my biggest issue atm, I'm not sure if I should do the long sides first, or the small side first?

Or one piece at a time, as I am now? Do I join longest side first then short in that case? Ugh idk what I'm doingggg

I am fighting a terrible hand-held sewing machine to do this, too, so it randomly bunches up and also swerves a lot so I'm at the point idk how much of this is a problem with me, and how much is the machine.

BASICALLY I need like... best route to do this? Pin it all together and then sew?

Also, used the last few bites, potatoes, carrots and broth that were leftover into today, in some ramen and... Wowwwww. Too bad Alien didn't get to try it bc I wolfed it down lol

And then, we spent at least 20 minutes pretending we were all in scenarios where we had to have said imaginary book introduced as a "best seller... THEY DEAD" and talking about how you can't say it without having a certain darkly humourous inflection on it XD
