Back to sewing -
Finally -
Now that some of that "business" stuff is done - ;))
I took a look at this one -
And decided that I wanted/needed 3 more HST and 2 more Flying Geese -
Reverse images - to fill in the blanks -
Cut them out - with my nifty little ruler -
Sewed them together - and put them where I wanted them -
Then sewed it together like a 9-patch -
Mixing everything up between the ironing board and the sewing machine -
And back again - LOL -
But it's fine just the way it is - ;))
Now that that's done -
I can add it to the pile that needs backings made -
And play with the borders on the RED Squirrel - ;))
If I remember correctly -
The instructions said to "tear" the insert strip and to "cut" the borders -
I'll have to re-check that -
Because "tearing" the insert strip seemed to work VERY well -
And I think I could do the same thing to the borders - ;))
Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -

I find it interesting that it said to tear the insert strip. Most patterns say to cut everything.
That said, I don't see why you couldn't tear the borders. Although I have seen torn fabric strips that were not the same width on each end - even though fabric typically tears on grain.
