This is getting easier the more rectangles I make. I have 6 more designed and ready to sew. I think my quilt will be more colorful than the one in the book because the red triangles in the book have a lot of dark fabrics with brown and purple in them and I have stayed with reds and pinks. I have enough strips cut though that I can make some darker red rectangles too and then I would have my choice when I start laying out the quilt. I am going to start cutting the rectangles into triangles today to see where any difficulties may occur. One of the measurements has 5/16ths in it so I'll see how accurate I can be.
