High five, ryatha!

I *finally* got round to making a few fitteds. first one was a total botch, I'm using a self-drafted pattern, so needs a lot of tweaking anyway. Made it out of old flannie pillowcases that work was chucking out. Second made of hald pillowcase, half Triple J shirt, it's too thick but I love the shape. Third made out of a mega mish mash of old fabrics - part pillowcase, part t-shirt, part pyjama. It's pink with giraffes on it, and I've got the timing down to 90 mins, although the last 20 was trying to convince the machine that black thread really wasn't so bad, but it wouldn't listen and kept jamming. It clearly wanted pink (same weight, same brand, bought on the same friggin day!) and then that worked much better.
since they're just practice goes I've been using elastic scraps I had in my drawer (so net cost thus far is nil) and I'm even getting pretty good at that. Got no fasteners for them yet.
If just making for self, do you think it's worth getting a snap press? Because they're fitted, I was thinking maybe I could just slot them inside a good cover, or all else failing, could probably pin.

But I'm pretty chuffed with myself...
