Actually, I know where I'm going, I'm seeing a coiled bag coming out of this fabric selection. Only another 30 feet or so of wrapping clothesline to go and then I can start coiling and stitching! Hopefully I'll have the finished product ready by the end of the weekend and then I can start the new quilted bag I have in my head! Cross your fingers that it will work.....
Busy couple of days coming up, meeting with my Pathfinder group tomorrow night and then a large amount of housework over the weekend - Mom is coming to visit next week and we're going to our annual quilt retreat on the 17th for two and a half days of stitching, eating, laughing, talking and a bit of sleep. I can't wait, only 9 more sleeps to go!
And finally, I'm linking to WIP Wednesday!
I'm very intrigued with this coiled bag your making...:)
ReplyDeleteI'll post some in progress pictures once I start sewing!
DeleteI'd love to see the coil finished. I always wonder how anyone knows how much coil to use in making one item?
ReplyDeletetotally a matter of trial and error at the beginning! once you've made a few things you start to get an idea of how much you'll need - my trick is to measure how much coil i have before I start sewing and then if I need more, measure that too. I'm a bit obsessive so I track the foot length used for most of my projects so I can always go back and compare.
