Excellent question, and something I took for granted, and should have probably addressed in the tutorial. I use a standard sewing foot for assembly - I use the side of that foot for a sewing guide. I would suggest a size 14 needle if you are having problems. I just did 2 sets of these last week, for gifts, and the only thing I had in the house was a 12 - I did get through all the fabrics, but noticed there was a little "noise" in doing so, meaning there was some resistance with the needle size (it just had a harder time getting through all the fabrics). A 14 should work great for you for this.<br /><br />I then used a 1/4" foot for the top stitching around the edge...again, your standard sewing machine foot would work fine for this, as well.<br /><br />Please feel free to contact me direct if you have any other questions - my email address can be found on the right hand side of my blog, with the envelope picture. Have a fabulous week!

Next time I guess I need to cut off more of the seam allowance. I love the idea and it was easy for a beginner like me!
