Triangles are tricky. You have to pin from the pointy end to the base. Otherwise I end up without enough material to cover the seam allowance. I don't know why it works that way but it sure does.

Jolo I sure wish you could post a picture of the quilt you are working on. I bright colors. Not too much into pastels. Love scenery, animals, etc.

(Continued)

I have played around a little with quilting but like to learn new things. I do need a little push.

Thanks,

I hit the "Send" button before I was finished. I had said in the first part of the message that I would have to be adopted by a daughter as I am 80 years old. I have been sewing for a long time and have just played around with some quilting including paper quilting. I need a little push and think this would be fun.

Thanks,
Marion
