    I've yet to feel guilty over the quilting expense, though given a couple years, and lack of space, it could possibly happen. NOT!

    Hahaha. I am already writing a list of things to get when I get my tax return. I am envisioning visions of shelves and fabric and rotating cutting mats. LOL:)

    Barb, if you get a chance check out the book "Stars by Magic" by Nancy Johnson-Srebro. You don't work with triangles, just sew squares and rectangles and cut the diagonals later.
    I just read about that last night as I studied my next top--pattern by this creative woman from a book called Big Block Magic. It's called Tree of Life--and the diamonds will be from rectangles. Thank goodness. :lol: I have the material picked out and I'm headed in to start cutting.
