You do such beautiful work.
@DJM - yes! The jelly roll I used is all wine themed. 
corks, grapes, vines, and wine glasses!
Thank you 
@crosstitchlinda so y’all have a crazy February too! My dil is Feb 17 as well. The only month crazier than Feb around here is April.
Well, I think I had a bias issue. My top won’t steam flat, or if it is flat, it does this when I pick it up. (And I MIGHT have an issue with some 1/4” seam allowances. Lol)
Is this able to be rescued? Will it be noticeable after machine quilting and washing?
I had this happen when I used a sashing strip between squares. I don’t know why. It still showed after quilting.
I’m not a quilter so this is just an ironing answer. Did you use a steamer or an iron set on a steam setting? I think a steaming iron works better to get wrinkles out. I have a steamer but I find ironing works better.
I used an iron with a steam setting. I think I’m going to take out the border and sashing and redo.
I decided to start something bargello. I am thinking a table runner and placemats.
I’m glad to hear that is all resolved.
I love the colors in this one, I hope you’re able to fix the burgundy top, it’s so pretty.
Nice!
very pretty.
Thanks everyone.
@FreedomLover - I am picking out stitches now. I am going to try to stitch with the walking foot and see if that helps.
Go team!!!
I used to have one of those house divided flags DD1 and DS went to Purdue, DD2 went to Valparaiso U for undergrad but IU for gradschool!
You should make him a mask. Get to the meeting early and place it at his spot.
Shouldn’t there be a February chatter thread?
Why yes there should! Coming right up.
Well, I’m not sure why the comments didn’t attach themselves to the posts, but… February chatter is here!
@EllenDeKnitter. Thanks for that info! I had never heard of that. I wondered what that number was. There was no dye lot number or even a name or number to identify the color and no gauge info at all other than what people said in the reviews. I really was afraid it would be a terrible quality of yarn but just felt a (very unlike me) urge to just take a chance since it was almost unbelievably cheap. I am so skeptical usually. I’m a firm believer in, “If it seems too good to be true, it probably is.” Like a pack of 12 balls at 270 yards each for $35! Lol I hope it holds up. I’ll be hand washing it so I can’t kill it in the wash at least.
