and the other day was fashioning a chair cover for a friend....it needed lots of bias binding, which i made from stash. and if you know me, you KNOW i didn't measure how much i'd need beforehand, just cut a stack of bias strips guesstimating how much was needed....well 'shiver me timbers' but when i got to the end, it looked like this....
now, there HAD to be at least 5-6 yards of the binding in all...but like the eclipse, this could never happen again in 45-50 years at least....true binding karma! *** a gorgeous late summer day here in mid-atlantia with temps rising incrementally as week progresses....boy do i feel blessed today!
That is a pretty little Christmas Tree!
ReplyDeleteSounds like you cut your binding the same way I do--guesstimation! Wow--that was a close call. You must be living right, Grace. :)
well there are moments....lol
DeleteHa! Binding karma rarely works for me so this must be a good sign! I love the little Christmas quilt and I think the colors are refreshing.
ReplyDeletewow, that binding came out right! The little Christmas quilt is a darling. Enjoy your hot weather there, we are in the 70's with low humidity.
ReplyDeleteI rarely comment, but enjoy reading your blog. I like the little tree quilt. Have you thought about putting some sparkle on the red ornaments?
ReplyDeletebriefly but the background is so busy afraid it would make it worse...like overkill..
DeleteBinding karma...I've added that to my quilting dictionary! I love the Christmas tree finish. The holidays will be here before you know it. Have a great weekend! Andrea
ReplyDeleteWoohoo! Perfect!
