Back -Up

Lena helped me iron out the backing for the table runner--
I had to be careful of  that swishing tail!
I added the diagonal stripes and set it over the table runner 
and--see it on the left?  
I couldn't believe it still peeked out!
I added a little strip-all I had left, and that covered it up. 
 I loaded it on the frame and pinned it to the top so it wouldn't get folded under when I came to it! 
 Unorthodox but it worked!
I couldn't resist starting it and made a lot of progress!
I'm doing each flower a little differently and thoroughly enjoyed it!
As for the QOV , I got as far as making the miles of binding
 but didn't attach it. 
 I will tackle it first thing today!

  1. I am happy to see I am not the only one who has backing drama. Those little peeks get me every time.

  4. Thank you for your kind comment about Teresa. As I read it I realized your blog is not on my blogroll, I thought it was weird I hadn't seen your blog for a bit, then I realized two more blogs were off also. What happened? Why you three? I have no idea but you are up and running on my sidebar once again. Stay safe my friend.

  6. I love those sweet little flowers, the fabric is perfectly "vintagy". Is that a word? :-) That tail is going to get flattened if you're not careful. Lena is so trusting isn't she? She knows you love her.
    Blessings and hugs,
    Betsy
