Meggie mentioned in one of her comments about not liking the math part of a project. That is my favorite part. Remember I showed this book to you a couple weeks ago and said I wanted to make the cover quilt? Well I got it out yesterday and ironed the creases out of all of the fabric and then looked at the cutting directions to see how many strips I needed to cut. If I had followed their directions, I would have needed to cut 2 strips to get 1 block with most of the second strip not needed.
I re figured the measurements so I could get one block out of each strip that is cut. My blocks will end up 12.5" square instead of 15" square as in the book. I have enough strips cut for 19 blocks right now. I need to find one more color I like or cut an extra strip of one that is there.
I'm auditioning for the center squares right now.
I finally got a picture with the red spot on this guy's head even though he wouldn't pose nicely for me.
Here is one of my favorite quotes. I have been following its advice for quite a few years now. It isn't always easy to be confident enough to do what you know in your heart is the right thing to do.
To thine own self be true, and it must follow, as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man. William Shakespeare
