I am learning a lot and am satisfied with my progress so far...I know my color choices could have been better, but I will learn. Also using FQ so will have to term these as "scrappy blocks".

My ruler has a 45 degree mark on it, but not anywhere where I can line the piece up to a corner and trim. Should I line up with the 45, and eyeball it as I slide the ruler to where I can cut the corner? Sorry, not sure if it's my equipment or I'm just not grasping it. I want to get it right :)rayfamilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10738836663001170089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2695658711837141737.post-85938396611768301512010-07-12T20:01:43.144-06:002010-07-12T20:01:43.144-06:00Lucy!
