Such sad news alvastitcher. What a tragic thing to happen.

Wavewatcher and Honcfhey: I believe momtotwoboyz is referring to this method not one of Bonnies methods.

I have the single double diamonds finished but have not sewn more than one together so no help about the points.

I'm so sorry for your loss! I'll keep your family in my thoughts this holiday season. Hang in there!

(((AlvaStitcher))) Thoughts go out to you and your entire family ... sewing gets us through the difficult and painfull times.

Everyone's work is so fantastic. I keep looking at the scrappy versions and almost wish I'd gone that way, but then I see a constant version and am glad I chose that option. Wishy-washy, aren't I?

Well, I've gotten behind. Haven't even started step 2, but hope to later today using the strip method. This week has been very busy finishing up some Christmas swap projects to get in the mail today through Friday. Then I'll have plenty of time to work on this mystery in between cleaning up an incredibly messy house from the above mentioned projects.

So sorry for your loss, Alvastitcher. I'll be praying for you and your family.
Momto2 - try adjusting your seam width a bit to see if that helps. Are they finishing at 4 1/2?

Brooke: Your helper is clearly very focused on her job. Hope you have a quilter in training there! Love your colors, so rich.

So very sorry for your loss, AlvaStitcher. Our thoughts are with you at this difficult time. Keep on sewing....it will help you work through this terrible time.

AlvaStitcher, very sorry for your loss. What a terrible shock and what a tragedy. I hope your quilting continues to be comforting and soothing to your spirit.

AlvaStitcher, what a terrible thing. My condolences to you and your family.

AlvaStitcher, I'm so sorry to hear your terrible news. My thoughts and prayers are with you and yours.
Stitch this quilt full of treasured times with your dear brother.
