[ Hi Lizzy ] ;)))click to visit
I have decided that the cornerstones were just too fiddly for me to juggle around!!
[ After cutting a ga-zillion 1.5" squares...;0000]
So I took Lizzy's advice and am going to make a Chinese Coins set,
out of these recalcitrant scrappy red/pink blocks....
Adding a white bottom sashing and stacking them up with a dark green strip
in between...thanks Terri [click to visit]
for that color suggestion--now it will really
be a Christmas quilt...;)))
I feel much more comfortable with this...there is enough stress abounding
this time of year--ya think?
