First Baby Quilt of 2010
How cute! Does it have a home or is it waiting to be needed?

Great stuff as always Joan. What a lucky baby to get that one.
I am fussing around with the border of my big tumbler and trying to decide if I it should stay or go. Tumblers are really fun. I'd like to put a challenge out there that everyone give tumblers a try this year. Even just a doll quilt or wallhanging. They go together quickly and look terrific. Not instant satisfaction but pretty close. Thanks for sharing. Taria "joan8904 in Bellevue Nebraska" wrote in message ... http://www.flickr.com/photos/2832877...=1264178619296 |

I hate hacking off perfectly good fabric to make the smooth edges. But the thought of all that bias binding, probaby sewn down by hand, makes me forget my good intentions. joan |

Done.
I have just put together a tumbler top using 3 charm pack from Freshly Squeezed ( by Sandy Gervais). Now those colours are WAY out of my comfort zone. At the moment it is about 43" x 47" but I still have to decide if I will leave it that size or add borders. Probably the later if/when I find something to co ordinate with it.

Had you ever thought of doing a facing, Joan - for the Tumbler edge I
mean? They are no more trouble than bindings, and sometimes less! like when an edge is not straight. OR You could appliqué the staggered edge to a straight strip of fabric. Then you have a straight edge to bind. .. In message , joan8904 in Bellevue Nebraska writes It's Bella Rosa from Miss Rosie Quilt Company.

I am working with a border on two sides of my tumbler and
I put a row of border fabric tumblers on those edges, cut them in half and added the border. Hacking off still is tough. Taria "Patti" wrote in message ...
