It has been a very busy week! Lots of scraps,
lots of quilts and lots of quilting!
I managed to take most of a day and
do up a bunch of scraps into 41 cute little stars.
These will complement my stack of crumb
blocks nicely. The baby pineapple was finished
up complete with a satin edge that nearly drove
me around the bend.
Treating it like a binding was not working so
after some frustrated pinning, sewing, ripping,
resewing and more ripping, I got a fresh packet of
satin edging and started over.
A quick phone consult to my BB made sure I was
on the right track and the rest is cute history.
I even labeled it up!
A little look at past labels has made me
alter my process. I am still using the adorable
mini blocks that were gifted by a friend, but the
corners were always giving me problems.
So.. I have done away with them! Now I nick
the corners off to make an obtuse angle that pushes
out neatly without as much bulk as the right angle corners.
The result looks nice, unique and even!
Happy cornering!
Stay safe and sew on!
