Another Version

I have another version of PP (prairie points) for you today.  Still two-color but with a bit of piping( Did I spell that right?)   Sew two strips together as before with 1/4 " seam just place a piece of piping in between.



Cut strip into appropriate length (as given on directions  on tool package).



I want the deep pink to be main color, so I therefore cut off 1/4 " so that light pink will roll over when folded and ironed in half.



Then you are ready to use the tool and  a hot iron and Best Press to make your prairie points.





Get four of the and put in your hand bag pattern,  For one side and it will look like this.


For the piping  I used a very small drapery cord for inside and I also cut down 1/4 " seam allowance just before folding in half ,so as to reduce bulk. 

If you look to the right hand side of my blog you will find a Label Headline, and under it are topics that I have blogged about in depth on how to do.  A friend of my and fellow blogger ( Wanda) of
http://exuberantcolor.blogspot.com  Showed me how to do.  Thank you again Wanda.

All for now , sew straight live long!  Martha

Onward!

  I have been doing some more sewing of flying geese, the past couple of days.  I have made some progress as I have about twenty sashings total sewn now.  Here are pics of what I have finished so far. I also got back another lap quilt from the quilter and I have sewn down the binding on the front side. In the evenings I am enjoying hand sewing the back side.   I also purchased some Applipops  , which were a bit on the expensive side($35) and decided to try them for all the circles in this quilt. They are not worth the price in my opinion.  To each his own. I prefer my mylar circle washers, There are many more sizes and easier to use.

Daughter Called

Image
My daughter called and asked if I would make her a couple of quilts! Of course I said yes, I love sharing my quilting with her. She  found a block she liked on pinterest in black,greys and white. I drew out my pattern on graph and began piecing until I got this.... and I found the most perfect soft snuggle backing.... So I now just have to take it to the quilter! I have also put up a small Christmas tree in the living room. I finished a small churn dash quilt of Fig Tree fabrics that I started at retreat in the beginning of November. I also finished my candle in the window log cabin quilt.... I started a few circle  blocks. I am going to use various blue backgrounds with my Kaffe and Tula scraps. All for now,chatter later, Martha.
