This is very exciting news...Alex Anderson is joining our exchange. She will be making enough HST's so there will be one for each member.

She said she would write "Alex' on each of the triangles, on the fabric rather than on the paper, but she would like to know if that's OK with everyone. :D :D

Hmmmm...I can't imagine we're going to have anyone say 'NO' :cry: :roll: , but she's leaving it up to you!! What do you say???

I say Welcome, Alex and sign away!!!

Thanks to all involved in this! I haven't started mine yet because I am making myself work on something else first but I have my papers and can't wait to get started!


Mine are Avery #5267 White Return Address Labels. They are 1/2" x 1-3/4" and come 80 to a sheet.

I know I'll not be the only one snowed in today! Hope everyone has electricity and sews to her heart's content! So glad I get to cancel my doctor's appointment - an hour's drive in perfect weather...no way I'm going out in this! I feel like a kid with a snow-day off from school. :lol:
Happy triangulating everyone!

And now to dream about what to do with all the lovelies due to arrive just when the dogwoods are in full bloom...
Just ordered Edyta's books.
Wondering...is it still a flying geese block if it's 2 HST"s placed with same colors next to each other?
Thinking of this as a border setting.

from a beginning quilter in Georgia, USA :)
I like that idea. Humm, got me thinking. Clara

I have to add my thank you to Clara and Debbie for the planning and future sorting of this adventure. I received my papers yesterday and have five sheets done. I'm so excited at the thoughts of participating.

Kalynn, I got my labels yesterday at Office Depot. Mine are actually the 3M brand 3200-R, 80 per sheet, which are the same as Avery 8167. The actual size is 1/2" X 1 3/4". Hope this helps.

Happy HST sewing to all :D


Yes, Dana, that helps a lot. Thanks! Kalynn

PRINTING YOUR OWN FOUNDATIONS?

If you are printing your own foundation papers from http://www.quiltingandwhatnot.ca/Half-Square-Triangle.html

PLEASE carefully do a test sheet and measure your finished HSTs.

Several of us are having difficulty getting them scaled correctly.

Someone a while back posted their suggestion for using avery labels to add name and location to each hst. Does anyone remember who it was or when it was posted or could anyone tell me which labels it was and how to do it?

This is so exciting; it is my first exchange. The strips are sewing up really quickly. I guess I need to decide which of Edyta's patterns to make. Such fun!!! I'll add my thanks to all of you Texas ladies for tackling this huge project.
Well, back to sewing.. :lol: :lol:

I have been amazed with all that has been said in this fun adventure. I have never done an exchange and i am looking so forward to sending off my package.

Thank you to all of you who have made this so understandable and easy to do. And thank you for all of the hard work you are doing now and for what is to come.

Ladies of the SOTTT,
I am so fortunate to be a part of this triangle exchange. To all of the ladies that have organized and agreed to sort the triangles for us I am grateful. (I am sure you didn't know how huge this exchange would become!) Thank you for being willing to see this through. I am so excited to complete my triangles and get them in the mail. I have three more sheets to finish tomorrow.

Happy stitching to all,
Susan
