babette

babette progress

This is how Babette looks right this very minute. Isn't she turning out great? The more squares I make, the more in love with it I am falling! All the colors make me ridiculously happy. The 2 round squares are looking very rounded when they're attached but I'm actually liking that look.

I've had a few people ask me how exactly I am joining the squares together. I am joining by slip stitching. I put two squares right sides together and slip stitch through the back loops. Here is how the back looks.

Not super pretty looking but it doesn't bother me. I won't be showing off the back when I'm finished, I'm using white to join the squares. You can see a detailed tutorial on how to slip stitch squares together on Attic24 here.

I'll have another babette update this week, I have another section ready to join!
