Something happened late yesterday that discouraged me. You know when you get to a point you just wanna throw it all. I had my iron on cotton setting and went to press my seams for the squares. Some fabric I had been uncertain of content shrunk in from the edges, looked sorta like an apple core template. So, I started ripping the blades off my Dresdens to take non 100% cottons out. IF I don’t just burn the whole mess ( and I know I won’t, it’s a new day-lol) I may make runners out of the 8 Dresden. That is IF I can find enough different Christmas fabrics that ARE 100% cotton.

Why didn’t I catch it on the Dresden, you say?
I told you hubby helps hold my rulers from slipping while I cut.
Now he wants to set and press seams.😳
I was hesitant a lot, so I set the iron to a lower setting concerned that he may leave it on the fabric too long and scorch it. Maybe I should have left the iron on my usual setting and I’d have discovered sooner.
