If you want a quick insruction sheet for the setting triangles I can send that to your regular email. PM me. Jan in VA |
I have also done Card Tricks like Jan. Mary Ellen Hopkins uses this method in her book 'It's Okay If You Sit On My Quilt'.

I had a heck of a time with the one I made for a sampler quilt. It is aptly named it is indeed "tricky" :)

I have that book (first one I ever bought many years ago), I'll check it out. Thanks.

She was a major factor in the strip piecing-speed piecing innovation that occured in quilting in the late 1970s/early 1980s. Her teaching methods, which were the first I learned, have served me so well inl my 30 years of quilting, that I rarely have come across a pattern that I can not draw/graph out/alter-in-size/or create in a some simpler way. I adore her as a person, too. Thank all of you for your kind responses to my first post under this topic. Jan in VA |
