ticker tape progress

I have 12 blocks made but decided this morning to make 8 more. I can't wait to get to the quilting part, I think I have a super duper idea for it!

    thanks again everyone!

    Right now, I think I'm going to use the same stitch that I used to sew the ticker tapes down, but in random squares/rectangles around the quilt and possibly with a few different colors of bright thread. I hope it works out because removing the triple stitch will be kind of time consuming if I don't like it!

    I'm sorry if you said somewhere else ... but I'm curious to how big your white background blocks are? This was my exact idea for making a TT quilt ... can't imagine turning and turning a whole quilt sandwich for each little piece of tape. ;) Can't wait to see yours finished!

  11. sewtakeahike 40 months ago | reply

    they're 12.5 inches each. I need to finish the back and then sandwich it and quilt it. Don't know why I'm procrastinating this one :)

    It's just beautiful and I just love your choice of fabrics. Do you mind sharing your sources?

    I would love to make this quilt with my scraps. Did you fuse the strips down before sewing them? Thanks for sharing your secrets.

  19. sewtakeahike 15 months ago | reply

    . Gosh, I couldn't even begin! Lots of online stores, and a few swaps.
    no, just pins.
