    Default From Don-isewman-A slight change in my sewing room

    I thought about this in my head, over and over. And finally made this change. My rulers, I used, were under a shelf, with a fluroscent light. The rulers sat back under that shelf. I had to always reach under that shelf, and put the rulers back. Under that shelf. You can see what I did. My rulers sat in a ruler stand. And I started another quilt top, also. I wanted to post 2 of the blocks, I've made. TAKECARE everyone. Don[ATTACH=CONFIG]490524[/ATTACH]My rulers under that shelf.[ATTACH=CONFIG]490525[/ATTACH]This is what I did, with my rulers. I have a window, with 4 shelves. Why not put the rulers on the edge of the shelves.[ATTACH=CONFIG]490526[/ATTACH]The ruler holder, that was under that shelf.[ATTACH=CONFIG]490527[/ATTACH]2 blocks made with my new quilt top started. Pattern called "Thorny Crown".
