A little more cutting -
So - while I was in a "cutting" mood -
I got a head start on the next one that I have planned -
Dug out some 10" squares -
Which are more like 9" squares now after pre-washing - LOL -
And - YES - I do pre-wash my 10" squares - but not jelly rolls or charm packs -
Ran them through my strip cutter die -
Then cut the rest of what I needed from some yardage -
We'll see if it looks as good "in real life" as it does in my head -
There are a couple more "projects" that I need to sort out -
Then I can get going on making more Crumb blocks - ;))
Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -
interesting - I have never prewashed a pre-cut of any kind. But then I only pre-wash yardage it is it "iffy."
ReplyDeleteWaiting to see what you make....
ReplyDeleteI received a very beautiful box of goodies today. Is it Christmas? Thanks!!!! I love the bright colors!
ReplyDeleteYesterday I cut up lots of background fabric ... enough to finish off 35 crumb blocks and 24 setting blocks. I do have a little over 20 inches left. I haven't figured out the math yet but when I get these blocks together, I will decide if I want to use the left-over piece for the triangles or make the piece a bit larger. It is nice to have a few options on the table (or sofa, as the case may be).
