Last week, I cut the long strips for my scallop border and 46 triangles. Then I ran out of fabric. Eeeeeppp!!! I was seriously freaking out. The boys and I made a little road trip to the shop where I bought the fabric. I bought it in 2008, so I wasn't expecting them to have it, but hope springs eternal. Alas, not unexpectedly, the fabric was no longer available. So I was left feeling sad and depressed for a few days.
After having had a little time to mourn my lost vision of 56 matching triangles, I am now feeling pretty darn good about my new vision of 46 matching triangles and 10 funky ones. I like that it is going to have a little randomness. Yay, for happy accidents!
Oh dear! I would have freaked out as well. But at least you are being positive about it. Also, I think it will look good with the way a jane looks with all the different fabrics!
ReplyDeleteI think you are doing just what women from the "Dear Jane" era would have done. You are making it work and I think that sometimes these things happen for a reason and the end result will be wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI cannot wait to see the creative solution you have come up with!! You can do it!! I get to run around this afternoon and begin to get my fabric!! YAY
ReplyDeleteSee, it happened for a reason. Funky sounds good! :)
