Stitch, Cut, Rip!

 How was your Valentine weekend?  Anything like mine—just ordinary days!  Yes—I think my lover doesn’t have a romantic bone in his body!  Years ago, he did but as years tick by, that part of him has diminished!  

Here we go with another sew along.  Although, this is a year old project, so far there isn’t a hint as to the outcome.  I’m sewing along just because……

Lisa Bonogean is sponsoring this event.   Sew along with us.  Here is how we begin—

First, gather some half square triangles paper—her instructions want 1” triangles—me, thinking of how tiny those triangles will be; I opt for 1 1/2” papers.  Lisa has papers for sale on her site.  I printed mine off via above website.

It is time to cut papers down to size.  I like to do them in half—more variety.  

Place two pieces of fabric Right sides together sew along the dotted line

Cut apart on solid lines and ta da, you have a million little small pieces.  Tearing off papers is not tedious, just lazy work

Next step was to cut off the wings!  Lots of little tiny points gathering!
