If you take your DJ ruler to show them, they might even be able to cut the tips off for you, too. I'm trying to use my DJ... I made sure my new length uses the same top angle as the original... but that is really cumbersome... would rather just have the right size. We have a LOT of tri's to go
Thanks for the idea, Nancy. I think I will do that. We will be gone all next week on a camping trip and that means I'll be another week behind. I am taking some applique blocks for my DGGD's quilt to work on during the week. I get so inspired when I see everyone's blocks. I just might go out and try to get a block made this evening.
