This tutorial may help you cast on your first stitches for a nålbinding round start.
Every once in a while, I find myself with a large amount of scraps in a specific colors. The fastest and easiest way of busting these scraps that I have found is to sew up a single color string quilt. One of the great things about these monochromatic quilts is you can really hide some really old scraps! To make the sewing as mindless as possible, I do sew the strips onto a fabric foundation. I can then just sew on the strips using the Leaders/Enders method as I work on other projects. And before you know it, the scrap bin is empty and you have yourself a twin size quilt! I even had a backing on hand that worked perfectly. So this makes finish number six so far for 2014! I had included this quilt as part of my goals for both the 2014 Finish-A-Long with Katie over at The Littlest Thistle and the 2014 UFO and NewFO project over at Joanie's Trendy Quilts. Let the finishing trend continue! I will be sharing this with the following linky parties. Needle and Thread Thursday at My Quilt Infatuation and Really Random Thursday at Live A Colorful Life, Let's Bee Social at Sew Fresh Quilts, and WIP Wednesday with Freshly Pieced. Be sure and check out these blogs for even more quilty inspiration.
I have made several of these over the Summer at the request of my lovely customers, using various novels and music books, so I thought it was high time I added this option to my mobile collection. This is the more traditional, 4 string type of mobile, it has 4 strings of 3D paper stars which spin and twirl prettily in the slightest breeze. It is approximately 40" from the small hanging ring at the top to the mini 3D paper beads at the bottom, the strings are suspended from a 6" hoop ( or 9 inch with 6 strings, you choose ). Makes a lovely addition to a nursery or any room for that matter. You have the option to choose your book from the options making it a perfect tailor made gift.
