It feels good to be stippling again, but I'm eager to try out the new glued binding method I read about over on Barb's blog. Imagine, a binding that stays put while you sew it down. Inconceivable!

Disappearing Nine-Patch Top - mid-Stipple
I ran out of the pink Prescencia thread I'm using for the top of the Disappearing Nine-Patch. Too bad, I was really on a roll. Now I'll have to run over to the Berry Patch at lunch tomorrow to see if I can get some more matching thread.

This glue you are talking about. I am using a glue stick at the moment called 'Lapel Stick'. It's like a pritt stick and I found it on the internet, wonderful stuff. I am using it to stick my hexagons instead of sewing them (round the papers that is) they hold together beautifully when sewing them together and no need to pull tacking out after as the papers just pull out.
ReplyDeleteCan be used for all sorts of things like applique etc, specially for fabric and water soluble.
Got mine from Ebay.
Hope this is helpful for you

ReplyDeleteVery pretty colors in this quilt Susan. I will have to try this pattern.
ReplyDeleteNever met a green and pink quilt that I did not like. Lovely quilt. I love Judy L's patterns, especially when I want a complex border. Happy quilting. Judy C
ReplyDeleteThat pink and the green look so fresh and pretty.
ReplyDeleteI love the spring colours in this quilt. It says it all.
ReplyDeleteNo one will notice a difference in threads, trust me on that one.
