Well, not exactly stars, but close enough.
My Five Fat Quarter Fun that I had gotten this far with yesterday... well, before noon today, it had it's borders on and the label, binding AND backing were done, too. Everything is on a hanger waiting for me to load it onto Mo'e - which won't be for awhile. I probably should assign it a number lol. Oh I forgot to take a pic of the completed top. You'll just have to imagine a solid dark blue 3" border.
After noon, I began working on the project that I had started at our guild's last sew in. I was going to save it and only work on it at sew ins, but after looking over the directions again, I knew I'd be better off doing it where there aren't so many distractions. A larger space to lay all the strips out would have been nice, but I made do with what I had.
Here's the pattern.....
While all this was going on, Mr Prissy was getting a little frustrated with me because I kept covering up his seating places with fabrics or I'd tell him he couldn't be on the ladder because I needed to get up (and down) on it. I hadn't heard the a/c kick on and it was getting pretty warm in my sewing room what with iron behind me, ott light and sewing machine in front of me and overhead light on so I could see better so I got up and opened the window almost as far as I could. The next time Mr Prissy decided it was his turn to sit on the ladder, I took him over to my cabinet sewing machine that sits in front of the now open window and set him down on it. He thought that was a pretty good idea.
DONE!! Well, except borders :)
Take care...ttyl........
I like the strippy quilt! And seeing it in strips that way makes it look a lot easier than the finished quilt looks! We've had windows open and a/c off all day today - it's just not that hot out and, well, we have lots of shade, too! The cats here, too, love open windows.
