Mellow Yellow

The binding for Snippets is made and sewn on so I'm happily hand stitching it down. In my wisdom, I've put my Wonder Clips somewhere for 'safe keeping' but now cannot, for the life of me, find them so I've resorted to straight pins. I'll have to do another deep dive for the clips as they really make a difference, especially with keeping the corners properly turned. If I only had a brain...

All three of the bias bindings that I need are cut and each is sewn to their respective quilts so I'm looking at several happy hours of stitching. 





I was sorely tempted to start with God's Green Earth because I absolutely love the binding.





The combination of purple...






and coral/fuchsia picks up on a few of the Bowties in the quilt and I'm keen to see it all together, but Snippets is a house-warming gift and the largest of the three so I thought it best to start there.

It's a dull and rainy day today and I've got half of my first binding on so odds are that it will be completed by the end of the day. Then two more to go.....M

  1. You've got a lot of binding to stitch in the days ahead. Hope you find your safely well hidden wonder clips soon. They do help.
