I had never sewn these smaller log cabin blocks together so I finally decided on a layout and sewed it. It measures about 42" square right now so I could leave it that size and give it to a baby or put borders on it and make it a wallhanging.
Then I took the little cut away triangles left from the strip quilt class sample and sewed them together and squared them all to 1.5" and made a little 5" Lady of the Lake block. I had some Kaffe triangles in a pile so I sewed them into squares and made an 8" star block.
Next I started cutting some strips off my Kaffe fabrics in preparation for a couple more quilts.
Jean's solution worked pretty well on my wavy piece yesterday. I spritzed it with water and patted it down and let it dry. Then I did it a second time and it is laying pretty flat. I will give it one more shot today and then I will mark the cutting line and staystitch before I cut it. When I piece the strata for the last triangles I will cut them and then staystitch the 2 bias edges before I sew them onto the quilt.

It got pretty warm overnight and our snow is almost gone. Never fear though they are predicting new snow next week.
