Day 41 of 2025

I usually wash all my fabrics before I start a quilting project. 

I have had these squares and the pattern 

selected for this project for a long time. 

Because these squares are part of a charm pack (fabrics precut to 5"),

 I will not be able to prewash

 as the 5" dimension may shrink and the edges may fray. 

So while I was ironing some household items from the laundry today, 

I decided this would make a great small next project

 to get me sewing quilt type items again 

(This is a table runner)

and pressing seemed like the proper prep

 for fabrics that will not be washed.
