I discovered something.
Sometimes math and I have "issues". But I so love to modify block patterns and reduce , increase , some kind of change. Any how you get the idea. Tonight after struggling with my latest modification, and looking for the right size scraps to make my test block... and not wanting to sacrifice some of my larger pieces.... I thought "what about using paper instead of fabric". It was a light bulb moment for me . I sewed my paper pieces just as I would have fabric, just to see if all really fit before cutting any "good fabric". I know this is simple and many have probably done this , but for me it was a discovery I will use again and just wanted to share.

Instead of dulling your needles ... just keep an old needle and use it when doing PPing.

And I thought I was the only one doing this!! I have lots of construction paper from day care days.
