Dear Evangelina...I know that you have not been sleeping well without your quilt. Please excuse me....but I decided to experiment with your quilt and made some feather stitches that I had never ever ever done before. It is all done now but the binding and you should have it soon.
Dear ME, Did I really grab impulsively for those washable Crayola markers or not???? Panic in the quilting room! I have never washed a quilt without the binding before...stay tuned..it is in the cold water wash as we speak(: I think that the pix below is a wet quilt!!
Diane, I love you and what you do!

I did the same thing last week!!! I grabbed a not-washable marker and marked away!!! I had to dump it in the kitchen sink with Oxy Clean and it came out well enough. Then it had to dry on the rack for 24 hours before I could finish the quilting. It all came out when I washed the finished quilt in washer... Those washable markers you gave us for Christmas washed out easily, the other, not so much!!!
ReplyDeleteThank goodness it was the washable marker....it all came out...label now on and binding too...will stitch down the binding Wed at Guild and give it away on Thursday...magic word...done.
