I spent a little time yesterday, preparing my new Leader-Ender pieces.
The leftover 3½" x 1½"scraps were put in a tray along with a heap of 1½" squares, and I'll sew those together one at a time. This cleared a lot of snippets out from the strip drawer, which is a good thing.
I sewed 1.5" strips onto 3.5" strips.
dark onto light, and
light onto dark.
Then I layered them together,
and cut 1½" slices.
Now I have a box of these units, which will be my leader-enders. I'll sew them all into pairs,
like this,
and that will make arranging them on the design wall easier.
At a rough count, I would need at least 720 units for a single bed quilt, so there's a lot of stitching to do before I'm anywhere close. That's fine, I'm in no hurry.
