Then, I once I figure out the yardage, I manipulate the grid to configure the cuts of the pieces - so that I get the most for the yardage.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5016045802187366719.post-63598624746343767502011-04-12T10:25:02.256-07:002011-04-12T10:25:02.256-07:00I put everything on the computer before starting t...I put everything on the computer before starting to get an idea of the dimensions, but then I write it all down on paper before I start cutting it out. It just seems easier to do it by hand than to type it all out. That's a little backwards, but I really like the act of writing it down. I think it gets into my brain better that way.<br /><br />LOVE the quilt btw. It looked great at the show, and it is hanging out by Megan's quilt so it has something to talk to.Kmachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01700371654462721831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5016045802187366719.post-73357980445672958672011-04-11T18:55:09.259-07:002011-04-11T18:55:09.259-07:00The quilt is great.

I always like to mock up my quilt designs too - much rather mess with bits n bytes than cut my fabric the wrong size.anotheryarnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04924336268700259079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5016045802187366719.post-82667866113535266262011-04-11T15:33:35.672-07:002011-04-11T15:33:35.672-07:00Thanks so much, Joan!Thanks so much, Joan!Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16612204734893322955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5016045802187366719.post-61604947582785202402011-04-11T15:15:10.464-07:002011-04-11T15:15:10.464-07:00Wow!

I either work off the idea floating around in my head (so lots of trial and error and making it up as I go) or the occasional wonky drawing on a napkin or scrap of paper that I then misplace. I can hardly wait to see your finished project, Jill. It looks amazing and visually interesting, and I love the sense of movement and monochromatic color play! Wow! Impressive!wishes, true and kindhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12569644595415450495noreply@blogger.com
