Pressing

I spent last evening pressing fabric. I couldn't stand the mess of all that washed fabric piled everywhere! At least this pile is ready to go. I still have a few more pieces that need pressed. There are also a few more pieces of fabric that still need washed, but I am making progress!

I worked on pressing one piece of the flannel for the future zig zag quilt. This fabric is 54" wide so I ripped it down to 43" and starting cutting strips. I don't remember exactly how much I paid per yard, but it very inexpensive. After washing the flannel has a wonderful hand to it and it is thick.

I am cutting these strips 3 3/4" wide. I want a nice bold zig zag.
