Autographs too small to hem
I had a brilliant idea to make my friend an autograph quilt for her 50th birthday...I had just started quilting at the time...I made a roll of white fabric for people to sign but neglected to add the 1/4 in around the outside so people wrote right up to the edge of the fabric...what can I do now to use these signatures and salvage my idea? Any help appreciated.

Maybe do a raw edge applique onto another fabric. I think I would use steam a seam or the likes of it so the edges will not fray too much.

Use a fusable interface on the fabric to stablize, then do a raw edge applique. If your machine is happy with it, you can try invisible thread.

i did the exact same thing on wall hanging. i fused the squares just like the other posts and did decorative stitching so it looked kind of crazy quilty.

Thanks so much ladies...good ideas all.

Don't feel bad......................I know somebody that did the same thing!:mad:
