Ritzy, your border is really, really wonderful. Reminds me of the red and white taffy from San Fran, CA. :)

Ritzy,
I love the curvy lines in your lattice! Contrasts well with the PERFECTLY STRAIGHT :D lines in your setting triangles!

I have Carol Doak's foundation paper and my printer is trying to eat it!! It printed out 4 copies of the lattice just fine but now I can't get it to feed smoothly through my printer! Does anyone have a suggestion for me?? I'm pulling my hair out here :evil: :!: :!:

Last time I printed on her paper my printer ate quite a few sheets and I spent lots of time pulling out little bitty pieces. It does tear away easily but you don't want it to tear while in the printer! Then I remembered using an Epson Loading Support Sheet behind the paper when I had used the paper in the past so I tried that and the rest of the pages printed fine. I was using a top loading Canon printer. I can still hear some of the paper in the printer when I turn it on. From now on I will only use the Office Depot translucent vellum paper, Item #345-854. I've never had any trouble with it printing, it's similar in price, tears away easily, and it's see-thru.

I found a wonderful striped fabric and fussy cut the curvy stripes to put in the blocks.

Could you use a glue stick to securely glue the top edge of the foundation paper to the top edge of a sheet of regular computer paper?
Maybe they will travel thorough together better? You might want to hit it with a hot dry iron to make sure it stays stuck!
