I seem to have a backlog of patterns I have sketched but not sewn yet…lately I’ve been playing with triangles. Here are a couple:

“Tiara”… 28 holes. Beginner bind.
jsb-39

“Double arrows”…48 holes. Beginner bind.
jsb-40

        Hi Sara,
        Sorry I never replied to you! I still haven’t created the diagram for this, though I have written instructions. I won’t have time to make the diagram for a month at least…but if you feel up to the challenge, I can send you the written instructions with a quick scribbled diagram. Let me know!

    Do you have instructions for the tiara binding. I’m making a wedding guestbook and this would be perfect.
