Squirrel -

 
 
My daughter found this on Facebook
Photo credit - boredpanda - dot - com - 
 
And it pretty much says it all - 
 

So I became the Squirrel - LOL - 

And dug out a quilt that needs binding - 

A practice quilt from Christina Cameli's Craftsy class - 
 
 
I couldn't find my left-over bolt of YELLOW fabric - 
 
To use to make the binding - 

 
But I did find some OLD "quilt binding" in a drawer - 
 
Wrights - Double-Fold Quilt Binding - 
3 yd package - $2.40 - 

 
It comes in 3yd packages - 
 
And I need over 7 yards - 
 
So I had some "joining" to do -

 
And I found another use for my LEFT-EZE Rule™

The dashed line on the diagonal is the 1/4" seam line - 

So - I lined that up on the seam that I sewed - 

And trimmed it -


 
And a couple of dog-ears - 


Re-pressed the "folds" - 

 
And wound it up a little - 
 
And it's ready to go - 

 
Tomorrow - 
 
I should be able to actually SEW it down - LOL - ;))
 
 
 
Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -

This one will surely brighten the room you place it in. So colorful!

I have made two different quilts for FMQ practice over the years. Both of them are fun quilts that I enjoy looking at.

There's nothing quite like being in touch with your inner squirrel. The binding was a great find.

I would love to chase the squirrel right out of the yard so I can finish something in peace, but no, they zoom all over the place. Nice binding!
