Winter? Spring?

In Arkansas you can never tell what it is.  On Tuesday we had ice and it was in the 20′s and now yesterday and today it was 63!  My daffodils are growing and sticking out of the ground and even have buds on them – unopened of course but buds.  We were outside a lot today.  I did a little quilting on the big frame but not much.  When I get off of the computer I will get over to the sewing machine and get back to work on my part of the raffle quilt for the guild, I have not touched it the last couple of days and need to get to it.

Another mug — I bought this mug in Glacier National Park in Montana.  As you can see on the mug there are paintings of people backpacking in the mountains.  I never backpacked in those mountains, but I have – years ago – in my youth- in Idaho.  Glacier National Park is one of the most beautiful places there is.   This is one of my larger mugs as you can see by having the scissors standing on edge in the mug.  I would say it was a 20 oz at least if not a little bigger.  The second link that I put in are photos’ of the park so stop by and take a look at them.  Beautiful place!  We will go back sometime I’m sure, we have been there at least 2 times maybe 3 – I loose track.  We have been to the mountain parks so many times.

Yesterdays question was:  To add fabric cornerstones (corner squares) to straight set borders, cut squares with sides that match the unfinished width of the border. The answer was TRUE.  Here is a link to how to do corner squares.

Question: Equilateral triangles can be cut from long strips of fabric.  Which method do you use to determine how much seam allowance to add to fabric strips?

A- Determine the triangle’s finished length along a sloped side and add 1/2″

B- Determine the triangle’s finished length along a sloped side and add 3/4″

C- Determine the triangle’s finished height from its base to its tip and add 3/4″
