Thangles....

As most of you know, this year our "thing" of the month is something we're calling Fantastic Finds. This month's Find is Thangles (I wonder how they came up with that name?) These are paper strips that eliminate the bias when making half square triangles. You just cut your strips, put the paper on, sew on the lines, cut, trim and voila - perfect half square triangles! They come in lots of sizes and there are a few patterns as well. This is a picture of a sample our Tracey did for us using the "Intro Pack" - didn't she do a fantastic job? The Intro Pack comes with two patterns and scads of 2" finished Thangles. Take a look at the display if you're in this month.

Today was a good Monday. Quiet and then not so quiet. Diane and I got a few things crossed off the To Do list. She's taken home a panel and fabric to play with from a new group we got a week or so ago - Serengeti. I made some more petals for our Garden Party on the design wall. And we got bagels. No, not for lunch...on fabric!

Tomorrow, Jan and I will set up for the Tea Party Wednesday and work on a bag from the Sunflower group and I need to finish my Shop Hop block and get it off to In the Beginning by next week - yikes....I better get a move on!

That's all for now, folks. Have a good evening!
