Happy birthday to the August ladies.
Happy birthday to the two August birthday gals. Kathy I hope you get to do something enjoyable for your special day today. My packages went in the mail today.
Barb thank you for the game prize. I did receive it.
I keep forgetting to get on for the Tuesday tips so this can be either a late this week Tuesday tip or an early next week Tuesday tip.
I found I had 5 bags of fabric scraps along with a bin full of scraps so I decided I needed to start on some string blocks but did not want to use a foundation so I taped off an 8.5" block (size I am making)area on my cutting mat to use as my "foundation" guide for my strips. As I am sewing my strips together I measure them against my taped block template to make sure the size is correct for the area to be covered and then I sew away. Alas no paper to remove.
scraps overload
