Easy Mitred Binding

Another quick easy tutorial for binding.  Each time I vlog I learn something new. Still be kind with your comments.  

This tutorial is slightly shorter than the last binding vlog as I did not repeat some of the steps.

I quilted this wall hanging but unpick it as I did not like it. That was many years ago! 

During 'lock down', I thought it just needed a simpler style of quilting and to be finished. 

After quilting it, just sat in my UFO box. I have decided that this winter I am going to tried and complete as many UFO's as possible. 

So let's get started....

Clocks Changed to GMT this weekend



The clocks changed this weekend to GMT. We gain an extra hour as the clocks move back an hour.

The days get shorter and the nights longer until Winter Solstice in December.  I do not like this time of year. I hate the nights drawing in as well as having to close the curtains and switch on the lights in the late afternoons. I seem to hibernate until Winter Solstice. To keep me for hibernation and procrastinating, I plan to finish as any UFOs as possible. 

Between Christmas and New Year every year I make a list of all the UFOs I plan to finish the following year. It is safe to say I am never successful. But I keep planning every year. So before the New Year starts, why not plan in October to get started early and hopefully I will success this time.

Should I keep a record here? I think I will as it will keep me motivate and focus to get things done.

See you again soon.....
