Orca Bay - 2/2/12

The Saga of the BLUE string blocks continues -

So - trim one up -

UP the LEFT side -
ACROSS the TOP -

Turn it around -
Line up the 3-1/2” lines -

Got the ruler flipped - sorry -
But as A Left-Handed Quilter -
I learned REAL FAST -
How to read a ruler -
Upside down and backwards - ;))

Take the paper off -
All nice and neat -

Couple more to trim -

See the teddy bear?
Isn’t he cute?

I think that I’m going to leave the paper on this batch -
I have an idea -
Tell ya later -
If it works - ;))

Make another batch -
Sew some more -
More - and more -
And then when I finish the corners -

I toss them in the basket to be trimmed -

And start another batch -

Sometimes when I start with a longer strip -
On top (strip #2) -

I can sew it to the paper -
Cut off the end -

And use it as the bottom/first strip -
On the next one -

Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -
