Forgot to ask: do you use regular fabrics, or thinner ones such as silk?

I am intriqued. . .

Thanks so much for the idea. I hadn't thought of that. I will have to get it out of the trash can and finish it up. It would make a great hostess gift.

Exclamation

Here are my blocks for this week. I'm not a 'purist' and am working from the book only, so I don't think I'll worry too much if they are mirror image or not.

I'm a little nervous to trim to size. I have this nightmare that when I get to the 230th block I'll realize I trimmed 1/4" too short!!

I just finished the first triangle (not pictured) and trimming that one to size is scary, too. I have the DJ triangle ruler and it shows the 1/4" seam allowance, so I guess I can forge ahead and trim exactly the size of the ruler. Someone please stop me if that sounds wrong.

How did you do this??? I would think your way will be helpful down the road on these really complicated ones.

If you have the DJ triangle, don't you have the square as well? The square is the trim size. It is 5" square for a 4.5" finished block.

Your blocks look great.

If you are referring to her post#264, that is the foundation printout from EQ. See her post#229.
