As of tuesday I will be a separated woman - he will have his payment, and I will be sole owner of the house. I will also have a mortgage - did you know that translates to death grip??!! Lovely.
One of the things I finished in the holiday was son #2's blanky. It is a length of material, cut in half and sewn together to make a large rectangle. Then pinned to a polar fleece blanket , stippled and bound.
Cheap blanket - $20 - cheaper than batting |
I discovered the power of the blue tape. Works better than white or green! |
The whole room was full of blanky |
Used Leah's tip on zig zagging the binding GOOD TIP. |
One very happy customer - the best kind! |
I should note the blanky goes round him twice in this photo. I only stopped stippling when thread ran out, and the size is pretty consistent, and LARGE. I have several new skills thanks to Leah.
So now I have to bind the asian fabric quilt and the holiday projects are finished. FINISHED.
The quilt looks great, and yes Leah is a great teacher.
ReplyDeleteI'm really enjoying the quiltalong, especially being able to pick and choose, and therefore not get stressed about it. And Leah knows So Much Stuff!
DeleteHe's loving his blanky which gets dragged round the house all evening, and slept under all night.
