I've been trying to get the excess dye out of my fabric for TWO weeks now. Grrrr
I want to use the blue to bind my turtle quilt.
I've had my border cut and ready to go this whole time - just waiting for the fabric to stabilize.
So tonight is the NIGHT - It's FNWF with Gone Stitchin'
So let's go have fun!
Happy Stitching,
Linda

The scalloped border is just perfect to finish that cute quilt.
ReplyDeleteI had some fabric like that: I just finally gave up and shelved it. Don't know where it is now! :-) They say try washing it with Color Catchers. They are supposed to capture all the excess color so it doesn't go into your other fabric. Maybe that would help? Have fun sewing tonight!! Hugs, H
ReplyDeleteThe quilt is awesome... I love your scalloped edging is fantastic. The blue will be amazing on the binding.
ReplyDeleteI hope you were able to make the FNWF!!
Two weeks good grief! Try adding white vinegar, or salt to keep it from bleeding. I can't wait to see the finish on this one, it's so gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteStill adore your turtle quilt! Hope that blue fabric worked out for you!
ReplyDeleteHope the binding went on ok and you solved the colour coming out problem.
ReplyDeleteThat is a long time; surely the water will run clear soon. I am a wee bit excited to see your finished turtle quilt.
ReplyDeleteWell, I missed FNWF, so were you able to get the binding on? Can't wait to see it finished. Love the scalloped border.
ReplyDeleteI hope you got the binding finished.It will be a lovely quilt.
ReplyDeleteLook forward to seeing the binding on that great scalloped edge...
ReplyDeleteYour turtle quilt is gorgeous! I hope the blue fabric finally quit bleeding! Friday night with friends quilting sounds wonderful! Hugs :)
ReplyDeleteThe turtle quilt is lovely. Did you use bias strips for the binding (I read that post first and am now getting to the quilt).
