Something to sandwich the pieces after they are cut so that they don't get messed up traveling. We are laying out and cutting tomorrow, you want to get them messed up, sorting them up would be horrible. Any ruler with a 60 degree to it will work.

If you have washed the fabric, they suggest not to, but okay if you did, I would consider starching it a bit to help stiffen it, I wouldn't normally advise this but in this case, matching it up may be easier.

Cutebuns, I have some fabric that I think may work for this. I will take a picture tonight.

Is there anywhere I can get the book for cheaper than $14.59 + shipping? I will have to talk to hubby and see if it's ok. I will also have to get a ruler as I don't have one. Oh, boy, more money! Ahhhh. But I sooo want to do this with you all!

The Library's in my area do not have the book.

Cutie, I have to work tomorrow, but I'll try to get home as early as I can so I can work on my OBW. What time are you posting? Any idea yet?

no clue as yet, I will probably start earlier than you are home just so that it isn't to late for the easterners, but will be on and off for a while, I hope to catch the most, but the good thing is that it isn't going anywhere,

I love the fabric, we will be going over again tomorrow how best to decide how big to cut your pieces to get the best look.
