Monday saw the borders going on my project for the challenge & that was some fun & games. :) Then i glue basted it & left it overnight to dry. Tuesday i was all set for a day of quilting & binding. By night time i was done.:) After that i could make a start on sewing this months RSC. :) Hopefully they'll be done by Friday.
My project went from this
to thisFreshly washed. I had to soak it because despite being packed away it had marks on it. I tipped the water out this morning after soaking overnight & imagine my horror when i saw the water was purplish. I hoped like crazy that i hadn't exchanged dirty marks for purple marks. It looks like a stain along the top but it isn't, it's just what is hanging behind on the clothesline.
I threw in a couple of dye catchers & they soaked up any dye that was there.
Thanks Deana for the encouragement to get the pesky ufo's moving along out of the way. :) Now to wait for Junes number.
Happy Stitching,
