So I had this crazy idea at 3am, mid April 2021. A rainbow plague mask to send to the Festival of Quilts. I nearly didn’t sleep at all thinking about it. Thankfully I did sleep, so I was alert enough the next day t…

It’s a very American book. Uber American lol. The group of women are obviously diverse in order to provide a variety of stories. I’m not sure what the prevalent theme is; the quilts, the Bunco, the food, the stories, they all seem to get equal time.

Juliet Nice wrote a new post, Flying Geese Ruler Review, on the site UKQU 1 year, 3 months ago

The Maths for this block are tricky. I even bought a book about it that didn’t help! I can see the ruler would be great.

Oh dear – my bank balance!
Thanks for the clear description.

I bought my first June Taylor strip ruler 20 years ago on QVC! That one has since broken in two through much use. I have three more now, including the 1/4″ slot version. I use them almost exclusively now, my other rulers rarely get much ‘screen time’
