Got my fabrics picked out, cut the six 3.5" strips and started cutting the triangles and would you believe I could only get 19 from each strip, so had to cut an extra strip of each color, which I do have extra anyhow, but just a pain to have to move things to cut an extra strip. Most quilts I will cut an extra strip anyway, but with this I didn't want to, because we are obviously going to use thes colors for something else too, cause there was still quite a bit left of the 1 1/2 yds.
