These are the pieces I am using for clue 4 of the On ringo lake mystery quilt found here at quiltville.
This time I used a 50/50 mix of starch and water. I soaked them and then hung them to dry. They were like cardboard LOL. I think the solution was a little too hard so next time I will try 60 water/40 starch.
I do like using starch. These pieces weren't going anywhere. When I used the accuquilt, they didn't even stick to the plastic cutting sheet.
Once I put the pieces together, they did not budge. Not even a pressure foot could move them. So they were the best pieces I could have sewn.

ReplyDeleteDoing all the quilts in a book is an amazing challenge--not sure I could do it!
ReplyDeleteI'm happy there have been 'No Strings' in our Mystery so far this year. What an accomplishment to do All the quilts in a Quiltville book.
ReplyDeleteYou got a great start on that last clue. Hmmm, I like your idea of working through all of the quilts in Bonnie's books. I have a scrap problem, maybe that would help reduce the magnitude of it?
ReplyDeleteThank you for your link to the Show and Tell Monday. Now a new exciting sewing is waiting in 2018. Hug Bambi
