When I began pinning and
basting I realized two things
Very quickly!!!!
No. 1:
This is too big for me to handle,,,,
Now What?????
Hmmmmm....
So with my 💜in my mouth...
I peeled back the 2nd 3rd layer
of fabric above the bottom
and cut the backing--
So I will be working on this bottom third first...
and then when I join the overlaps from the middle 3rd
will cover the join....
It is all pinned and I've begun the invisible basting ......
so much easier to handle..
.
And, as you can see, it has changed
yet again in the process...!!!
Since this is all things I love
about and around my home,
I added mushrooms....
two of them cause I
REALLY like mushrooms ;)))
and a pretty decorated plate,
teacups, and buttons...
which you can see in the 1st shot above...
AND...
a little house Fairy 💃
See her here>>>>
Now, if she would just come and clean house for me!!!!
😀😁😂😄
*****************
I also have learned--
No. 2:
That using an old sheet
(one that is part poly!!)
is NOT a good
idea;
it is not stable and is
quite slippery!!!!
;((((((
So,
I will replace the
last two backings
with muslin....
And....
Thank goodness for phone
cameras as I have taken
shots to see the placement of the
sections...as I will be
unpinning and putting them on
the muslin....
You never stop learning.....
