Welcome to the 1st of October!
You’ve all been waiting…..
and here it is…….
In the words of Huey Lewis and the News, it’s….
Hip to be SQUARE
Yes…… your next round is Squares! And suggestions? Well there’s so many, but…..
:: think 9-patch
:: think 4-patch
:: think square-in-a-square
:: think square within a square
:: think fussy cut squares
: think any of the above on point
If the measurement of your quilt top so far won’t translate into nice easy numbers for squares, think about putting on a small border. My top so far is 34″ (finished) and I’m putting on a small 1″(finished) border on each side to bring it to 36″(finished) – many more possibilities with 36″ than 34″!
Go forth and have fun! Looking forward to seeing the results on flickr
I know what I’m doing…..! (and so does Jan!!)
Happy stitching
Meredithe
Ooh just what I was hoping for! I know what I’ll be doing this afternoon. Perfect day for sewing and as far away from the TV as possible, who cares which group of neanderthals “wins”
oops probably shouldnt have said that, Ill get mobbed by football supporters. No offence intended!
The Sweet were Band Of The Month last month, Huey Lewis and the News are Band of the Month this month – what a blast from the past!!!! Who will it be next month???? You really are as old as me!!!! I think I need a cup of tea, a Bex and a good lye down now to consider what i will be doing with squares.
first there were triangles..next came squares..maybe hexagons next LOL??!! i’ve got lots of of square ideas buzzing round in my head and like Merran i simply couldn’t give a toss about you-know-what lol!!!
