Thanks for the tute, I like that prairie point ruler too but don't make enough of them to buy the ruler.

I don't know how Tinkerbell relates, but pinch pots are the first thing you make when learning pottery. I still have my first one (I was almost 6) and my daughter's first sits right beside it. Like mother, like daughter applies to more than quilting. :D

We also made pinch pots in elementary school. Mine was hideous but my dad still has it!

This is one of those stories that will become part of your family legend. The term will be an inside "joke" and will stick. It'll become part of your family's unique language.
