5/12


Date:  March 2013

This quilt will go down to Mexico at Easter.

Lessons:  This is from my apple box fabric.  I made it more than a year ago, discovered that I had cut corners (assumed that someone else's cut squares were identical in size) and thus had split seams and threw it in a corner.

I used 2" wide strips of fabric, folded them in half like I was binding and sewed them down next to the split seam - raw edge to raw edge.  I then folded the strip over, again as if i was binding and hand stitched the folded edge on the other side of the seam.  Problem solved.
