Then I have to figure out if that is enough to do what I'm thinking I want to do or if I have to make more!! ahhh but as nuts as they are to make they are a great way to use up all the scraps!!! I love making them, especially when I want to work on something that doesn't require much thinking :)

    I couldn't agree more...these are great stress relievers as you don't have to 'think' too much about making them...as apart from the outer edges being squared up...anything goes!!lol!! Post some pictures so we can see yours please :D

    Oh what heaven. Your life style must be a peaceful one. To be able to quilt in an area like that, would be anyones dream. No wonder your quilt turned out perfectly

    K9collie - It is very peaceful, it is very different from inner city Manchester, and I love it!! :D (Will say though on the downside...my beam end is widening, as I am getting very laid back, practically horizontal I would say.....apart from when I am sewing lol!!! :lol: :lol:
