More lessons learned - pins. More pins!! Even more pins!!
Even when you think you have enough pins, add more pins!
I decided to machine finish the binding, but clearly did not use enough pins. Looked fine from the font, but the back was a shambles. More unpicking, more pins.
After 3 perfect corners, one decided to fail, but I think I managed to hide it pretty well. Also decided that the quilt shall be a wall hanging, rather than a practical quilt. Apart from the fiasco with the colour bleed, then the fabric shrinking, adding the buttons and hair pretty much sealed the deal! Would definitely not be a comfy wrap around....
Oh, and here's a pic of the pattern from the magazine, jut to show the inspiration.
So, next on the agenda?? No idea, yet! Stay tuned....
