I looked at it a couple of times and when I saw this project I knew I had to try it! It helped that it was on clearance for $4 a yard, I will be goingto but the rest of the bolt this weekend!

So you can cut from about 3 1/2 to about 4 1/4 but not 4. You don't want to hit the repeat right on and 4 is a multiple of 24.

ok here are the 2 rulers that I have that have the 60 degree mark, will either one work and how? I couldn't get it to look like the pic

They should both work. Line up the line that says 60 degrees ( not the thin side) with the bottom edge of the strip and that will give you your angle. Try on a piece of paper even if you just use a pencil to draw it out.

That is exactly how I did it to get it to work in my brain. I cut it out of paper 1st.

It is easier than maybe messing up the fabric. You can use newsprint or something else cheap. Just clean the ruler before using it on fabric if you use newpaper as the ink sometimes sticks to things it shouldn't.

By the way Cute, your sig line saying, I just love it, My now 6 yr old grandson would do that last year, he would bring me dandelions and say.............Nana I picked these pretty flowers for you, can we plant them. Out to the yard we would go planting dandelions.
