OH ! FEEL FOR YOU! another reason I hate working with white or ever white on white scraps. Black seems to be just as bad for me. Enjoy your wine, I will be thinking of you. I would love to post photos on this board, but that is another mater of operator error, or maybe it is my new windows 8? YA! That sounds good! Blame it on the computer! (Sorry, that sounds a lot like saying-the check is in the mail- LOL) Oh Ya, the ANOTHER ONE OF THOSE QUILTS saga is continuing, pulled out my extensive stash of flannel (all 3 pieces) to find the backing. Now you must relies I can pinch a buffalo nickel. until it turns into a Guernsey calf. LOL So who knows where or when I got this piece. I know I was washed at last once before it hit my stash. But to be sure it won't shrink more, after measuring twice (had almost a full yard extra) I washed it again. Length is fine, but it went from 42 wide to 38. HUMM maybe to be safe I should wash again, down to 35 and not enough for backing. AUUGH! Will have to use different fabric, The search continues! Have washed that flannel 3 more times still shrinking ( will admit not as bad now) but the color is fading. Hey Otis do you want flannel cat bed ? LOL
