Transforming wedding dress into a quilt

Following on from my previous post, the next stage of the quilt is to make the centre rectangles for the lace to be sewn on. This is a form of log cabin. To make, you start in the middle and then add on the borders. Its very important to cut the stripes to the exact length required before sewing to ensure a perfect rectangle results.

The three rectangles are then sewn together

The shoulder lace will now go on the outside rectangle and the front piece of lace will go in the middle. The next stage is making the flying gueeze border.

Helpfull hints in making a border of flying gueeze will be in my next blog.
