So, ironed, measured 3 times (and then began diving into my
stash)
I came up with this lovely panel I had purchased years ago....
for the back center
Ironed that and then went back into my stash.........
perfect for bordering the sides of Milady....
tore that (I like to tear large pieces not cut with rotary--i feel it's
straighter...)and ironed those pieces ....
and I had just enough to sew on either side...
THEN:
I sewed them on...ouchey--my shoulders and back
let me know enough already for today...of hauling big pieces of fabric
around....
BUT I at least chose the top/bottom borders, cut this time and..
IRONED (sigh) and then sewed them together...to make the right width
Tomorrow I will sew those borders on and then the back will be ready for
layering...
I ordered batting from Connecting Threads
[on sale $16.99 per Queen size lightweight battings]--
I purchased two.....and as soon as it comes in I
will layer this one and pin baste and decide whether
to tie, or machine quilt or do a bit of both....
AND,
VOILA!!
all of a sudden, I am a lot happier with this
Dancing Postage Stamp quilt..
This will make a generous lap quilt.
