This is now a top! Yea! Got something finished. With Ridley being part of the family now, I devised a plan in order to give me some sewing time. We have playtime early in the morning and tire him out so that he sleeps for most of the morning and that is my sew time. Yes, I'm smart! LOL
I did it slightly different than her instructions. First off, I didn't cut all the strips she recommended. Looking at the photo, all the downward sections are the same fabrics placed in different locations. All the upward sections are also the same fabrics. This is a lap size top and instead of 128 strips, I only only cut out 64 strips. I had to just make sure that the length was long enough to make two strips each.
Backing has been selected and this top is ready for the LAer.
I'm happy with the look and would make this pattern again and again.
Cherish your day, cherish your life!
I made a bargello years ago using Bonnie's pattern. It was very easy, I need to do that again. Happy stitching!
