"Gridded" again

Two of the required journal quilts are ready, facings stitched and all! They don't have titles yet.
Frottage with those chunky Stabilo crayons, on organza 
Frottage again, on paper

 The sequins glint so nicely -
This next photo isn't a lesson in how to distort a photo, but does show two methods of "invisibly" binding small quilts. I used the facing, cutting a slit to turn it inside out, on the "city grid" and as a result the paper is now a bit more crinkled than expected. It's hard to turn it rightside out! 
The facing strips are easier. I used Kathy Loomis's "cut away the corners" technique and it works a treat, thanks Kathy.
