Okay! Thanks

Hey Swan Song, I think that just might do it! I'll let you know later. :P

Great! Just let me know if you need more cheering on! :thumbup:

Hey everyone, I just discovered what to do with my old floppy disks! mine measures 3 1/2 x 3 1/2! well go figure!

also CD's are 4 1/2 the cases are 5 1/2x 4 1/2 got measurements all around! and didn't realize it! Bet y'all did!

So are you using the old disks as templates or what?

LOL--I'm watching the same two threads too!!

And cheaper than having to go out and buying new templates!!
Smart thinking on re-using for some purpose or another!

Just checking in with the group and ya'll are doing a great job. I have just started. Taking care of Mom and things are settling down into a routine. Bad news is DH took off for a road job and took my fabric by mistake. Hw won't be back for 3 to 4 weeks ..You know what that means.... A trip to the LQS. I think I will go to the Amish Quilt Shop in Arcola, Illinois. That will teach him to take off with my stash. Have fun, Gang...

did you have your fabric in his vehicle???

anyone online now, I can't sleep so up reading the board

Boy oh boy, I've only gotten 5 blocks done and working on the next set of 6. I'm doing a 8" modified 9P with a sawtooth star in the middle and an alternating pattern of an Irish Chain for a queen size bed. Lots of cutting and piecing before the blocks can be put together. Of course, I didn't think :shock: and make strip piecing out of some of it. DUH!!!! :roll: So I'm sewing every little piece together!! When the cut pieces are used up I'll be strip piecing instead, but can't not use what I've already cut up. Oh well!! May not have 60 blocks at the end! :lol: :lol:
