A month or so ago, I was wondering what the BIG deal was about those itsy-bitsy, squinchy-ginchey "Inchies." The term was buzzing around the postcard exchange groups, but I didn't know how to make them. My first attempt sewing some individual 1" squares proved challenging. Then I read about the strip method where you make multiples in strips, edge-stitch both sides, then cut into 1" squares; add embellishments if desired, and finish the raw edges. Here are some of my little pieces. My favorites are the black ones embellished with metallic thread and overlaid with sparkly netting, and those I layered with organza, printed on my computer printer. Now THAT was fun!
