Welcome back to Day 4 of the Nilah Sew Along.  I forgot to post this yesterday. Right!! But here it is!

If you still haven’t purchased Nilah, you can still get the English or Dutch version on sale for $5.95.

First of all, you need to remember that you will use a stretch stitch (zigzag stitch) throughout!
