And this is what I ended up with.
I chose autumnal colour toning for my leaf potholders but they would look good in any colourway.
Back soon and in the meantime
Happy

I often wonder why......(Day 8 post)
Quilters take perfectly good pieces of fabric and cut them up only to sew them back together again. This is what I have been doing over the last couple of days. Firstly all the fabric was cut into strips then sewn together. This was done twice.
Next I took my ruler and used the 60 degree angle to cut it firstly one way then the other. This was done on both pieces. That gave me 4 pieces which were mixed around to match the angle.
These were then sewn back together. I took another piece of fabric and cut it on the bias to make the binding.
That is so effective..... yes, us patchworkers are a bit crazy with out cutting and sewing! haha

Oh those are really fun!
ReplyDeleteI try not to think about the counter-intuitivity of all our cutting and resewing, especially when cutting big pieces of material into very small pieces!
