Your triangle looks great okie! I'm going to tackle TR3, the one on pg. 99 that Klue gave me. That is if I can figure it out.

Klue I tried the fabric with light on top, print on top, but always right sides together, it didn't matter if I put the paper down face up the placement on the triangle was backward. When I used the mirror option the problem went away. I can't explain it.

Klue, should I go ahead with the measurements you gave me with the tri.? They are 8 1/4" x 5 7/16ths". It will be a practice one.

kluedesigns

yes, when i tape it together here i'm getting roughly the same measurements.

you had to mirror your triangle?

WOW!! You're doing triangles for the Christmas blocks, too? You are an ambitious group and I look forward to seeing more of your progress throughout. They're inspirational, really.

Yes that's the only way I could stitch and have the numbers and stitch lines on top. If I didn't it was just like using the paper I've always used by Carol Doake stitching from the back. It reminds me of newpaper print. I like the vellum paper better, it's stronger. I can take out a couple of times without destorying the paper. I promise you for every line I stitched I took out 2.

I don't know if it's ambitious or self-inflicting torture. :lol:

I agree okie! Sometimes you make some weird moves and you wonder if you're all there!!!
