SHOW YOUR STRIPES BLOG HOP......

 


 is hosted by Clara over at Creatin' in the Sticks.  

the Challenge: 
Add a stripe, or two, or three to your project.
It can be striped fabric, striped binding (a favorite of mine), or strips of fabric to make stripes.
It's your interpretation of a striped project.  
Anything with a stripe.  You decide.
Just "Show Your Stripes!"
 
Today is my day to show my stripes.  I didn't have any striped fabric....so what to do.  At the time I was working on a frog wall hanging. ( I liked the way this was turning out...so it became a quilt in progress.)   And I had a lot of green scraps.  So I decided to make my own stripes for the border around the blocks.  This is one block with stripes...
How I made my stripes....the strips are  1" wide.  Then I cut them at various sizes and started sewing them into strips.  I've started putting the blocks all together.  This is what I have done so far.

 
I have one more row to put on and I'll have a filmsy.  

Want to see more Stripes....check out the links below to see who's doing stripes today.
