After reading the tutorial 3 times I committed to try the technique.
It worked perfectly. I just followed the instructions and it worked
on a table runner. This method stops so much waste of material.
Make your quilt block, add batting heat resistant, and quilt. Trim the batting even with your quilt top
Cut one backing 1″ from the quilt edge
Fold the backing to the edge of the quilt, 1/2″, I like to press it down
Fold the corner over as shown
And then do the steps as before, 
Sometimes at the corner you will have to move it around a bit
When I get it like, I like, pin and I press a bit, between pins and at the corner
I like doing 2 rows of stitching, just my personal like.

So YOUNG, so happy. He gave me two sons and those boys gave two daughter-in-laws, and four grand boys. I am blessed.

3 blocks that needed attention,
I ALWAYS wash quilts before I mend, this one turned out
VERY nice, they usually do !
I like making a paper temple for the applique piece I’m adding
Try to make it exact and add seam allowance at the time of cutting (it’s easier to do this way)
This is the same fabric, one is the right side 
Add the seam allowance and cut out piece 
Fold down the point and press
Fold the sides over, I like to press everything and I use the tip of the small scissors to hold as the fabric will get HOT !
Applique the pink down and I then hand quilted, forgot to picture !
3 baskets I fixed on this quilt

Things here have been a little bit crazy and I’m hoping for a bit of calm to settle over us. At times it still seems crazy, but I’ve adjusted or accepting a bit better lately. Read Last Month Part One
I have heard a lot this past month or so about empathy, and you are under the opinion I have none. And, as I’ve politely tried to say and will say here in my own way, bullshit.
Empathy is the capacity to understand or feel what another person is experiencing from within the other being’s frame of reference, i.e., the capacity to place oneself in another’s position.
And really I do get it….but, I’m moving through survival mode. My way is, look and solve the problem, see what is needed and what HAS to be done. I can’t seem to find empathy at those moments, but isn’t that empathy too, getting it done?
Long ago, a Hospice worker said to us, “Nothing but the truth is to be spoken from this time forward.” I hear her saying that in the back of my mind so often. It’s also a pretty good way to live one’s life.
As we settle in, the work has not stopped. The daily needs of life still have to be taken care of. I have learned to ask for help, to understand it’s alright to take time for me and that life becomes all about potty and poop. And, or the cleaning up of it.
Lessons learned.
I’ve learned to cry often (a hot shower is designed for that), WE laugh often and I NEVER fight or argue with her. Why…life always comes down to potty and poop.
Please be kind…or don’t leave a comment

Nothing would be possible without all of you and The Quilt Ladies Books. This is how the books looked for years, after the past printing I decide to only put them on Kindle and NOOK It was a time and printing cost decision. I have been asked to have them printed on the Amazon site, but the book would be over 50.oo and at 9.99 it’s a bargain on Kindle and NOOK

The books take you through learning to quilt, starting a business, moving, daily life and death. Each book continues the story and has Complete Quilt Instructions for the quilt the ladies are making in that book.
