Since I finished your class (My Blue Heaven) here in Poway I've been busy sorting, trimming & organizing my stash and was wondering how to translate some of the shape sizes I use to be able to use the rulers you taught us to use. It's like you were reading my mind! Now I'll be ready to go!

Like most quilters I had begun to fall prey to those-tricky-have-to-have- this-new-ruler deals. But using only those special few you can cut anything is so perfect.

Seriously helpful info for us math challenged folks! When I make your blocks from Quiltmaker I used to follow their directions, now I do try to do the conversions because with your influence I love the easy angles...however I sometimes make a unit more than once to figure out the size I am supposed to be doing--seriously! Now I will be converting easily! THANKS BONNIE!
