Quilt Labels?

 Do you label all your quilts?

table runners?

wall hangings?

I have been rather lax in that department. :-) When I finish a quilt, I am ready to move on to the next, and that often means I don't label it. I had been folding the square to make a triangle in the corner so I could sew it on when adding binding~ but that only works if you add a binding. ;-) What about those projects where you take the back and fold it around to be the binding?

I have finally hit upon a solution that works for me.

Using my ~

Crafter's Edge Crossover II and the Whimsical Hearts Die set,

I fused Heat n' Bond to the back of my fabric and cut out hearts!


                                                        Lots of hearts!

Tonight I will take my pens and personalize them, and then they will be ready to go on the back of some projects. :-)

I love it when a plan comes together! LOL

Until next time~

Go sew something!!

Squirrel?

Ever have those days when you plan to do one thing,

and then~ squirrel!!! :-)

I have my Christmas sewing list made and should be working on that, but then I saw these towel designs and had to try them. :-)

The stripe is straight above the chicken tail, my folding is not so much. LOL

On the left is a design from Designs by Juju 

On the right is also a DBJJ 

Both designs come in sets and I fear there are more squirrels in my future! :-)

I did get my November BOM finished and have been sporadically working on getting my top together.

It is a traditional block called Rolling Stone, but normally it was done in 2 colors. Why do two when you can do 11?! ;-)

Ok, back to 'the plan'. LOL

Until then~ Happy Stitchin'!!
 
 

B-r-r-r-r

Who knew that having a Halloween Hop last week would bring the chilly weather?! We had rain, wind--- the power even went out for a few hours...
