In the afternoon it was time to go into "The Cave " for FNSI . When I rummaged through my fabric cupboard and I came across this pile of fabrics
that had been put aside ages ago to make a "Super Hero " quilt ...
I used this simple pattern .
Even got the binding on and then I was about 1 1/2 " short . Sew I got out my bag of left over bindings because I knew I'd use this before . Yes I could see a peice ....
and it was enough....
Last night I completed the quilt and even put a label in the corner...
Completed an unplanned project thanks to Wendy for our FNSI ..
Look forward to seeing what others have done HERE
Must away and getting ready to help hubby again ..
Happy Stitching , Stay safe and well.
Hugs Maria ❤
