"The Bias"

Learning a new technique in anything requires concentration and "stick-to-a-tive-ness". A self taught one, maybe one notch up on the scale. So with pride today, I tell you I learned how to make bias tape (3/8") for stems and leaves for a quilt I am making. I tried making some yesterday with a practice piece that I messed up. I consulted several web sites and blogs to find the one that "spoke" to me best on mastering this odd, but very useful technique, and successfully made 400" of bias tape in great leafy green color. I am thankful I stuck with it; yes, an "old dog can learn new tricks"!

BSoleille!  The bright side of sticking to learning something kind of hard (at least for me).
