@CraftyIrish the quilt looks great so far! Any progress on the border decisions?
Haven't gotten to a fabric shop yet and with lockdown I won't get to one for 6 weeks. 

Most of my quilts where made with recycled  Duvet covers i got for free from my aunt who lucky was cleaning out her utility room. They are 99.99% gone now. I love to recycle old materials.

I was making straps for my crochet bag just a hour ago with fake leather and the bottom was pulling to much and pleating it, so I used paper under it and then ripped the paper off when I was done.

Omg  :scream: no way thats the cost of making a quilt or 2. So far i have just been doing straight lines quarter inch from the ditch, it is hectic doing it on my heavy duty singer  but I hope to learn how to do free motion quilting.

How much does it cost to get your quilts done. I was looking into it here where I live and it was costing €100 or more.

Welcome to the new and wonderful world of sewing - prepare to become addicted. Do be aware we are all enablers - so if ever you ask " should I buy......" the answer is invariably "yes'  except from Lowena who is our voice of reason!
Thanks for the lovely welcome I look forward to all of that.
