Managed to get one more block done! I have 72 completed. 97 more blocks to go and then that border! I have a feeling it will very much take the 3 years that it took me to make the first one. I did decide last night what pattern to use for the guild challenge that is due in the middle of May. It will be a wall hanging and I will use several methods of piecing for it — and that is all I will say about it until it is due in May
I have been told that there are several guild members that look at my blog so I better not say a word as no one is supposed to know what we are making – pattern, or what fabric ect.
I did a little more yard work today and also made up some wonderful biscuits for supper tonight to go with stew. Karen at the Dakota Kitchen has some great recipes. She had a recipe for a sour dough starter for a cinnamon bread which I made and from there I have looked for other sourdough recipes and I have found a great one for waffles which we really loved and then I found a recipe for biscuits. They were delicious! I have a bag of them in the freezer now as it made much more than I realized it would. If anyone is interested in these recipes let me know and I will post them. Go to the other Karen’s site and see what all she has to offer
Yesterday’s question was: Half-square triangle units can be used as “parents” for quarter-square triangle units. The answer was TRUE. Truthfully I guessed at this one! I had not heard the term “parents” for half-square triangle units. Here is a link that shows what it means and explains all about it.
Moving on – next question: Patchwork pieces are traditionally sewn together using which of the following seam allowances?
A- 1/4″
B- 1/2″
C- 5/8″

Hi Karen,
Thank you for the nice comments and I am glad that you have had some good sourdough experiences! I haven’t tried sourdough waffles, I am going to do that soon, thanks for the idea. I have linked your quilting blog to mine.
