Mini design Board! from bee in my bonnet!
I love it, because Minnie likes to sit in my space next to my sewing machine, and my ironing board is on the other, so I have to roll all around trying to get a block put together! This way I can leave it in my lap or even on my ironing board.
In the tutorial she made them 10x10 so she was able to get 6 from one board. Well most blocks I make are around 12" so I wanted it a little bigger. I made one board 15.5" (that foam board is hard to cut!) and one 14", so I only got two!
It took FOREVER because the tube of fabric I did for the border took forever to turn right side out. I thought about it, next time I am just using ribbon!!
Here is my board!
Here is my board with a block on it! I can't wait!
i am in the process of making a design board of my own. i note from lori's directions that u don't have to turn the tube inside out, check the tutorial again. u just fold the strip to the middle on both sides and zigzag down the middle. are u on twitter? if so, please follow me: i am "eileensideways".
ReplyDeleteI know the tube wasn't required. But my main machine doesn't have a zig zag stitch.
