Taking a break from edge stitching Month 1 center block. Thinking ahead to Month 2. Going to make my border wider so I can
do flowers and bird houses. This is the start of the first border. Will need to compensate the number of dog tooth triangles by
what I get after making one border. Then I will do the math. I just kind of roll with what I like the looks of. HelenW

The fabrics are listed as Japanese yarn dyes on Etsy. The circles are made using cardboard from cereal boxes, I cut fabric were it almost touches when you fold the sides together. Run gathering stitch, use double strand of thread to get your pull to cinch up and press, slightly loosening gathering and remove template, use your thread and cinch back up, ready to stitch. The extra fabric gathered up makes the circles look padded. The templates can be used many times.

[QUOTE=Lynnanne;n891266]Helen, it’s coming along so beautifully. I’m amazed by how you get so much done and still find time to dedicate to everyone on the forum! (And shovel snow!)[/QUOTE]
Lynnanne, Thanks for the compliment. It is so much fun just to play "ADD ON" and see what happens. I am one of those quilters
that use small amounts of time to my advantage. I am not one who can quilt for hours on end. I can do my best work if I kept it
to less than an hour at a time. I am a creature of habits. I exercise every day, next to no exceptions and I quilt almost every day.
It doesn't have to be a lot of time, and it all adds up. And don't think that shoveling snow is a chore. My mind is coming up
with great quilt ideas as I work and since I work out every morning anyway, I don't get sore or injured from the weight . And as far as the helping out or complimenting other quilters, I have never met a quilter I did not
like. And I know they don't ask the question without hoping someone will answer it. It you like something, say something. If you
can help out, give your free advice. Hope you get a chance to make a bunch of beautiful quilts this year. HelenW

Hi Ladies, as normal, I'm just getting started. I'm always the last in line. I'm starting to choose colors now. I'm at the ranch, so my big stash of fabrics are in town. So instead of waiting for another trip to town, I'm starting with what's here. Only Kaffe fab. But my fav anyway. So here's my start. It will be colorful.
