Did that make sense? lol
Yep... :(

I think I will have to take some blame on making Yosemitesa rip her hair out. I feel silly now that I say it out loud but ive never even thought to look at WOF and I thought the salvage was the white part. ugh....ive always used that other end in my quilts. I apologise, I'm new at this. Sadly it probably wont be the dumbest thing I ever do and on a positive note... I rarely make the same mistake twice. I'm sorry that I had to learn at your expense Yosemitesa... Hugs??? please.... *uses best sad eyes*

I'm fine with a few wonky or odd pieces
Thanks so much for hosting,
I know it must be a huge headache especially with wonky fabric
Just hoping mine "made the cut"

Take a picture for you? What a sense of humor you have. I don't do windows and I don't post pictures....my family hasn't let me touch a camera since l972 and besides I don't know how to send one, I just may have to mail you the fabric to let you see it up close and personal. I've turned the fabric every which way, held it up to the light, etc.... but can't see anything. You would really like it as it is really pretty...
