Thanks everyone for your support of my donations-for-tutorials idea!
I'm going to do a couple more tutorials and see how it goes.
I got out of work early today and I've been pulling fabric from my stash for a new quilt...
It's a quilt to feature this Civil Rights Toile which I recently purchased (because I'm MADLY IN LOVE with it).
This fabric is in stores now. I found it at Hancocks of Paducah and Fabricworm.
Anywhoodle, I think I'm going to need to paper piece for my little plan to work...which I don't think I've done before. Any tips?
Interesting fabric!
ReplyDeleteHave only paper pieces hexies so afraid not =D
Great fabric! I'm hopeless at paper piecing so I hope someone else can give you some great tips.
ReplyDeleteFantastic balancing act! Great photo the fabrics match your shirt. Maybe you should add it to the stack!
ReplyDeleteI just might...it's actually a friend's discarded shirt that I picked up to maybe wear and maybe cut into...

ReplyDeleteI'm supposed to show The girls how to paper piece. Maybe we have a sewing session soon.
ReplyDeletePlease!
DeleteI have a dream that one day Stonewall will be considered a Civil Rights event worth representing on a toile fabric...
ReplyDeleteBut that Lincoln? Adorbs.

Thanks, Adrienne. I don't think I qualify as my blog is several years old and has hundreds of followers.
DeleteI like golden threads paper and a short stitch length ... Im by no means an expert but I dont unstitch if mess up I just throw it away...
ReplyDeleteThanks...any advice helps!
DeleteI've been saving this post in my reader for months because I loved that toile - and then I stumbled upon it in person and took home three yards! I'll be looking to see what you do with it - thanks for making me aware of this awesome print.
