Borders Added

My fun braided table-runner now has borders on it.

Choosing the fabric was much easier than I expected. 

The piece I used was already pressed and laying out as if it 

were ready to use just for this project. 

I did consider one other piece of fabric but decided that there 

might not be enough of it.  Lucky me!

This one was perfect.  

There is still a bit of squaring up to do, but I love the 

choice for borders.  Choosing backing and binding may be

more time consuming.  Ha ha

The hand dyed fabric here works delightfully with the batiks

You see, I have decided to use the fabric I love NOW.

I realize that I only have so much time on this earth.

I can use the fabrics I love first and then use the others, 

if I last that long. 

I have a good amount of fabric. 

Plus, I always enjoy shopping for more, 

or winning more. (wink) 

These batiks are from my most recent win. 

Use those fabrics that you love - if you "save them" for 

something special, they may outlast you.

And your family may put them in a yard sale. 

(Horrors, imagine that fabric you loved selling for 

fifty cents a yard!) 
Use it now.  You KNOW you will buy more.

Until Next Time,  

Stay Creative
