for a change. Why couldn't he have been wrong this time. It is 5 degrees with a 20 mph wind right now. There is an ice coating that started around 11 p.m. last night and then a light snow over the top. I'm going to cancel my dad's dr. appt. this morning.
Meanwhile, last night I decided to start playing with my selvages. Some people like only the white selvage to show where others like some of the fabric to show to. I'm just experimenting at this point.
I really need more variety if I am going to do a very large project so I will just do a couple small things right now.
On Saturday night I also got the binding on this small quilt (about 42" square), also all by machine. I sewed it on the top and then flipped the binding under and stitched in the ditch on the right side next to the binding to catch the flap on the back side. The center of this quilt was a sample of one of the packs of Trip Around the World fabrics that we used to choose and bundle at the last quilt shop I worked at.
I'm not sure what it's use will be. It isn't really baby colors, it is too small to cuddle under. I think maybe it would be a nice piece to drape over a table.
