The joys of Painter’s Tape

I LOVE painter’s tape, and everything that you can do with it. Happily, I discovered a new use for it this past week.

When I am making a quilt that needs to be a specific size, I would use pins and yarn to mark off the size on my design wall….

….and then fill the area…..

A few weeks ago, I started playing around with this idea….

As I pulled it out to work on again, I decided to select a size and mark it out, but this time I used painter’s tape!!

I was thinking about 40 x 60-inches, so I measured a 40-inch piece, and placed it on the wall…..

….followed by the other three sides…..

But, when I laid my piece on the board, I knew that the aspect was wrong….

It was so much easier to make the change when I could actually SEE it……

I will definitely use tape to mark out future projects as well!!
