A Kitchen Rug

So I made a jelly-roll rug.  It was a challenge to get it to lay flat.  And no matter how much I tried to get it level, and pressed within an inch of its life...it had a curve on the outer edge. I ended up unstitching to where it was flat, and re-zigzagged it.  This time I stacked up books around the machine, and loosened up a bit, just gently guiding the fabric next to each round.  I didn't do any pushing or pulling, and it worked soooo!!! much better.  Enough that I'm trying rug #2...this time I'm doing all the prep steps, and rolling it into a ball, etc. and trying to do it exactly according to the pattern.  I'm hoping it comes out a bit more flat the first time.

Wishing you comfy feet!
