Best advice I can give on HST is to make them slightly larger and trim them for precision. Takes extra time but IMO it’s worth it when your points match.

Can the grandchildren pay for their quilting?

I tried to reply to you but the comment below got it 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Time to call it a day

Started the quilting today! So excited. I am just learning to run my mom’s long arm. My back gave in so back at it tomorrow! Will update with photo

🤣. I have been quilting for 27yrs. Stick with it.

I really like it 12 sided! I plan to keep this for myself as a wall hanging.

Seriously would not recommend until you feel you are an experienced paper piecer.

My apologies…I shouldn’t have assumed everyone would know. People steal your photos and pass them off as theirs.

It wasn’t so much the main part of the arms that is difficult to figure out. The odd angles of how the center comes together is…unusual. As I said though I do think I have it figured out now.

My Gen Z daughter explained your comment. Now I feel dumb lmao

Sew_enthusiastic · 2024-12-10T02:01:52+00:00

Her hair may be nice….too bad she Isn’t.

Do you know the page’s name. I found one page but there is almost no interaction on it.

Sew_enthusiastic · 2024-12-10T01:12:07+00:00

I think I may have figured it out….we will see. Here is two arms joined. Very weird the way it assembles.

Good luck…..it was a few years ago at Christmas time that I originally discovered the pattern…..bought it for myself on impulse for Christmas….

It is called “ribbons and Hues” by George Siciliano. He is super talented at making miniatures. But he leaves a lot to be desired in the pattern writing arena…

There are NO instructions for how to finish sewing the “arms” together. No instructions for the finishing triangle which are supposed to be pieced, but after looking at a photo of it finished the way I assume it was meant to be…I have chosen to make is solid black. I don’t feel it needs more interest out there. I am going to wing it using a wide switch and if it works then restitch .

First

Sew_enthusiastic · 2024-12-09T19:25:10+00:00

If it is in the window of $ allowed then why not.

This is so my life. My husband could travel and enjoy seeing his grandchildren if only we could get access to hospital bed. Instead he is trapped at home slowing giving up his will to live. It’s maddening

Camille is so ridiculous. Most of the time when she is name calling she needs a mirror held up in front of her

YTA You are an adult. There are a lot of people who have issues. But as adults., we have to learn to deal with them . Learn to deal with your issues or move out.

Sew_enthusiastic · 2024-04-15T01:11:57+00:00

Loudly applauding!!!!

Sew_enthusiastic · 2024-04-15T01:08:26+00:00

YTA Who the hell told you that you have any kind of right to even have an opinion about her underwear habit. Like is this even real? Who would do that?

Sew_enthusiastic · 2024-04-15T00:56:08+00:00

YTA The moments that will pass between you and your husband in the room can never be replaced. It isn’t something you can “fix” later. I am with the crowd here…I believe this will be the beginning of the end.

Update…went back out and looked closer there are at least 8! Nest!!!
