Hello Cutebuns,
Have you every used triangulations? It is great when working with small squares. You place the printed paper on two pieces of fabric for the size squares that you want. Then sew on the dash lines. Then you cut on the solid lines. When I make 3" squares, I come away with 8 triangle squares. It is quite accurate.

Well, needed to go out for a bit, but I am back and here it is laid out on the table. There are a few rows that don't fit on the table so will have to lay them out after I get these sewn and can move them easily.

I have never used triangulations. I have never tried paper piecing. I want to try all sorts of things, including hand quilting. Some people tend to follow one style were as I want to try everything at least once. I am not sure how successful I will be at any of them but i love to learn new things. I have only ben quilting for about 2 1/2 years so I have a lot to learn yet.

Just to let everyone know that i will be explaining what is behind this quilt, meaning why I made it. It is for me, though i really like it, not sure if I am going to keep it. I will be doing this as I either get the top done or get it quilted and or done.
