I'm just finishing piecing your Spider Web string and am wondering how you keep from stretching the blocks when removing paper backing. I KNOW they were all the same size when I sewed them to the triangle paper but my,did I have a hard time making them all match afterwards. I did find that if I steam them and press them with a piece of 2 x 4 it helps a lot. Anyone else have this problem?<br /> Miss Evahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06863828915289780236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-65586032166275914362016-03-29T10:05:21.449-04:002016-03-29T10:05:21.449-04:00I started my morning with your blog.

It is sunny and bright morning - but oh so windy - and your post just added to the joy of the morning. <br /><br />Anonymous hit the nail on the head when she reminded us of how much time we spend in the fabric shops deciding which on which best suits our purposes. That is really one of my biggest chores since I'm such a beginning beginner, even after many many years of trying. <br /><br />I do okay at finnaly getting my top made, but then it comes to putting it all together, and oh boy! I have quite a number of UFO's. I keep trying, but I really stink at it....Someday....although it has to be soon, cuz I ain't gettin' any younger!<br /><br />Thanks for your inspirations and love of life...<br /><br />Loretta McGinn<br />tlkids65ll@aol.comLoretta M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02464004015116333403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-19633630648508814272016-03-29T09:19:59.254-04:002016-03-29T09:19:59.254-04:00I know how much you enjoy history; so you might wa...I know how much you enjoy history; so you might want to check out the show on Netflix; Diggers. It's really interesting; lots of episodes about two guys who using metal detectors search for historical items from different areas. Not tons of episodes, but enjoyable. <br />Love all the grey... I'm going to see what I have the most of in my stash and maybe go from there in strings...Jean C.http://dougjean.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-84719003370160372452016-03-29T08:23:23.176-04:002016-03-29T08:23:23.176-04:00It has been great watching you put these blocks to...It has been great watching you put these blocks together.

So many posts and never seeing any of "my" contribution made me worry it got lost on its way, but there are three of them in today's post, including the cats! They were too cute not to share. Can't wait to see where these string blocks end up.

Don't forget, not only did someone do all those things with the strips that you mentioned, but the contributors started by standing in a fabric store (or online) comparing fabrics, until they pulled those particular bolts, declared them perfect, and bought some. So each strip represents a finalized decision, too. For some, that's one of the high points of making a quilt - deciding on the fabric and buying it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-18049938511615160832016-03-28T09:52:22.744-04:002016-03-28T09:52:22.744-04:00The quote really brighten my day......several frie...The quote really brighten my day......several friends are going thru some hard days so I had to share on my fb page.
