No.... I'm not doing a normal sashing, mine will be the Storm at Sea setting, which means squares in squares and a LOT more piecing. I don't want to get to the end and have to do all the sashing in one hit, so I'm planning on adding mine as I go to minimise the stress and work.
I love the storm at sea setting! I think I will try it. I need another table topper and I will try it on one and see how it goes.

Has anyone else heard or read of this? I am going to try it today, if it is not so I will only lose a couple pieces of paper. If it is so then I won't make the mistake I made on my triangle.
no, i haven't heard of any printing everything that way.

let me know how the experiment works out for you

Oh how I hope this is right. I have wasted time having to redo because I thought triangle BR2 wasn't reversed, it is, had to redo. Think I will try this as well.

that's what I'm hearing...I am having major printing issues with my DJ software. I'm going to try again today...and hope for the best. I am going to mirror it as I was told by ???(I just woke up and I'm a little hung over from our party last night) that it must be mirrored. Sorry I'm forgetting...

I found out the time consumming way it is to be mirrored but from working with it I'm think I'm going to have to wait for the tute. I've heard you all talk about Y seams, I think this one has one and I have no idea what you do with them. One of my goals of the party is to learn or figure things out on my own. Klue or anyone when you start on this tell me if I'm right or wrong I think there is a Y seam where the A section (6 pcs) G section (2 pcs) and the D section (4 pcs) come together. There is a possiblity there is another Y with the A and B section. I'm not going to work it until I see the tute but I would like to see if my thought process in going in the right direction. Then again I've been told I make easy things hard.

Another concern, I am right it putting this question here or should I put questions of the nature somewhere else. Is this post just for pics or pics and help aids.

It was OKIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, had fun. I only had two drinks, but I don't really drink anymore so they hit me hard! I'm so fuzzy this morning and tired!! We stayed up until 2:30, and I didn't really sleep well after that. I think I will sleep like a rock tonight, and probably even take a nap at some point today.

But I hear that triangle calling. If I can only get it to to print properly... :!: :!: :!:

i just printed out the pattern for BR2 and taped it up and colored the sections and i'm not seeing why this would have to be mirrored.
