I would have never thought of it either, but I got the idea when I saw the fabric, so figured, why not at least try. If it doesn't look good, I can always give it to MIL, she loves what I make, even the ugly stuff. lol
But, I was actually surprised at how it came out.
I'm going to "x" the 9 patches. Found some gold thread today.
I'm in the process of putting 2 totes together, then I am going to work on finishing...Yes, the "F" word....the quilt tops that need to be done.
I need to go and buy a plastic bin/tote for this stuff and start putting it away so I don't start losing it in my room.
