haylillan Thanks so much for posting your identifed fabrics, I can surely follow your pictured direction. Glad I delayed in cutting my fabrics and now I'm aboard also and will also post my fabrics as I haven't yet done that. Thanks again, Judy for putting this together.....my very first train ride.

absolutely no problem. I can just switch my fabrics around LOL Just have to take the stickers and move them. Don't even need to cut and sew more itty bittys. Judy, with what you went through with the old/new computers, good grief lady don't beat up yourself. Three little squares of fabric??? no biggie. HUgssss now and take a deep breath and know we DO understand. Retta from even warmer Florida. Course that means rain again. :)

I had used A and C for the little triangle pieces, and then yesterday I said B and C? I'm an idiot. Any possibility you have extra fabric, enough to cut the 3 blocks of the A and C fabric again? But if not and you have your pieces cut and done, I think you can go ahead and use what you have made. We will have to made some adjustments. The little pieces needed to be made from A nd C in order for the pattern to show as I designed it, but I think we can make it work. Or if you have enough fabric, you can remake the little triangles. I guess I should have stayed off the train for this ride, I am not functioning well, am I? And I always prided my instructions being spot on. Soooooo sorry, everyone.

You know , Judy, there are always silver linings to every cloud! I did my half-squares, which turned out fine, but was not really happy with the small tris, and considered redoing them anyway. So no problem, plenty of fabric and plenty of time and nets time I'll be more accurate! Thanks for doing all this for us!

No problem Judy ... Maybe we'll see some interesting variations on your design! It's not a mistake, it's a design choice?

ok This is my first train ride too and WHAT A MYSTERY! love it Judy and hope your computers going OK now, Vicki M has put me on the right path and guess I'm doing 3 runners now. (I had my own stuff up as well!)

I have lot's of fabric so I can fix the little traingles. Ooops spelling error. I think they will remain Judy's Traingles. I did finish clue 2 yesterday and was not happy with the lack of contrast with the little traingles. I will re-do them today and see how they look. I currently like the last off white fabric the best.

Ok now it wont hurt as much to redo the whole thing. I can blame it on your error not my lack of picking good contrasting fabrics. I was going to redo the whole thing anywho.. phew. It wont take long heck 12 hst and 12 qst dont take much time to whip up at all. and I sorted the fabric yesterday so I can now rethink my drink with a smile :)

thanks for clarifying it. A/b for hst and A/c for qst's. Got it.

If you look at the original fabric photo posted on the first page, A is the print, C is the green and D is the black. I used A and C for the little triangles, print and green.

I will contact Patrice and see if she will change the original posting. Once posted, I can no longer go back and correct it.

Once again I apologize for my mistakes.

Also, just a thought Judy...might want to go fix post #376 to be the correct directions for anyone who hasn't done it yet.
