Say that 3 times fast….. STRAIGHT…..STRIP…..SETS!!
Not only is it a tongue twister, but it can be an issue when you are creating a Bargello quilt…..
….and that is what I have been doing this past week. The quilt is due at tonight’s quilt guild meeting and, amazingly, I had it finished FOUR days ago. That is probably a record for me with Challenge Quilts!!
I will talk more about the design process on Thursday and thru the week, but today I wanted to show how I sew and iron my strip sets to ensure that they are even and that the seams are straight.
As I sewed, I put together this video to show you the process.
Be sure to come back on Thursday when I will talk about the design considerations in this Bargello Challenge!!
