At Google Books you can read several chapters of her book for free. I read everyone of her articles in Quilters Newsletter. She was one of a kind.

A tangle with fangs? I've always used it as new fangled or fancy invention. I learned 2 new quilting words this week too...quilt poop and thread turds. Can't wait to throw those into a conversation! :lol:

That would be finagle, as in using some sort of trick to get something.

Is the definition for fangle strictly according to Helen or is it a real definition? The definition you'd find in the dictionary would be something new fashioned.
