I have always wanted to do it - even bought the adding machine tape. I love the look of the "Piano Keys" border. Maybe some day I will do it.

Karen Brown from Lets Get It Done Quilts has a video tutorial on using this method.

I sashed this blue Jean one with adding tape strips. Also made one vertical using my deceased brother in law’s shirts in the strips.

Toogie. That vertical one is just gorgeous! I love it and is that flannel on the back? The other one is lovely too?

Not flannel, thank you. They both are blanket throws I used for backing and no batting in between. The throws were from Walmart and so soft. I sewed 2 together for the backs. Wish I had more of the plaid. |

Attachment 645817Attachment 645818 this is one I did 9 years ago. I ran out of calculater paper, so I cut newspaper to same size. I put a 1.5 inch ( I believe) between the rows. Call it kodachrome, cause it reminded me of old film . Removing the paper is a taste, but anything worth while takes patience.
The black strips provide seriously needed rest for the eyes. I think I am going to try this too. Thanks for the inspiration!👌🌷💕 |
I've used water soluble light weight interfacing instead of adding machine paper or phone books cut into strips. I don't have to pull any paper off and once the quilt is washed you can't even tell it was ever there.
