In order to do that I had to finish the label. I had some time on Friday night and used it to make the label and order some rotary blades.<\/p>\n<p>Rotary blades, you ask? What do they have to do with making a back? There are some tasks that are not hard, but they can interrupt the flow of sewing if you have to stop and do them. I have been trying to identify these tasks and put them into slots of time that are not suitable to sewing.<\/p>\n<p>Making labels, making bindings and ordering rotary cutter blades are three of those tasks, which I have identified so far. I figure that if I put them into these odd slots of time, I&#8217;ll get more sewing done. It&#8217;s a theory anyway.<\/p>\n<p>I wasn&#8217;t up to sewing a lot of small pieces together, so I tried to find some larger pieces of yardage. I found the large piece of Philip Jacobs. I knew I had a large dot piece that I liked with it, so I found that as well and went from there. I always have to piece a bit around the label, but I found that bird and tree print, which was perfect, because I didn&#8217;t have to cut it up too much. The trees show up pretty well and I was pleased to see the butterfly. There is something nice about that print and this turned out to be the perfect use for it.<\/p>\n<p>I made the binding last weekend, so this baby is ready to go to the quilter. Yippee!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was determined to make the Scrapitude back this past weekend. In order to do that I had to finish the label.
