Here is my strippy piece now named
MY GYPSY WANNABE
(sorry for the blur--I cannot fit the entire piece in...)
Here is a filler block as I didn't have enough of that lovely lily fabric...which
is a 10.5" horizontal strip breaking up the long strips on the top
from the lower lengths.......
I am setting out the bottom strips & as you can see
some are too long and some are too short
SO........
Using my new golden rule:
"If it's too long--cut it off and
If it's too short--add to it!!"
I will cut off the longer ones and add those pieces to the shorter strips along
with some filler 2.5" squares....
AND THAT'S WHAT I DID TODAY
ON "FORWARDER FRIDAY"
:--)))
Tomorrow is: "If it's Saturday it's Scrapbooking" for me..
I will be scrapbooking pictures of our visit (belated Valentine's celebration)
to Jeff and Lin's this past Wednesday....
