Ruffles.  Love the way they look, HATE having to baste and pull threads to make them.  I spend a little bit of forever pulling and tugging, trying to make sure that the gathers are distributed evenly. 

Debbie from Squiggly Twig Designs has a baste-free, pull-free, tug-free, fuss-free method for making ruffles on her sewing machine.  This is such a cool technique!  Who knew it was this easy to make ruffles?  Read how she does it at her blog.
