Wow what a good idea that is I also bookmarked it and I will be using it in the future. You are way too smart. :thumbup: Keep it up

I have to go into Hospital to have a replacement knee Op late on in March and suddenly realised I didn't have a Lap quilt, made loads but gave them away so I quickly ran up a D9P and used the till roll for the borders and IMO it has really made the quilt rather special.

What a brilliant idea - thank you for sharing.

From a couple of orphaned blocks I made a nice little tray cloth today, I cut the till roll border horizontally to get 2 identical narrow strips, I think it worked lovely and such a super use of scrappy bits :thumbup: http://inlinethumb15.webshots.com/46...425x425Q85.jpg

I have not been quilting a lot yet (no big quilt done so far) and I don't have much sraps yet but I hate throwing them. I think I will start sewing them that way before I get bags full of little pieces loll. I heard about the drying sheets and I have been keeping them for a few months now. That's it, I'm getting organized before I get addicted to quilting.
Thank you so much. Your experience pays me!!! loll |
This is the neatest idea I've seen in awhile...thanks for sharing.

Oh dear dear....i have a whole bunch of old white sheets that were given to me after the old inn burned down....too old for backing but perfect for foundation piecing...how come i didn`t think of it before!!! Thank you so much for the great idea!!!!!
