    Because I am new at quilting, I am still a pattern and direction follower. Because I have chronic pain and fibromyalgia and take certain medications, sometimes even that is a challenge for me. Like yesterday when two of the direction pages stuck together and I didn't notice, so I sewed all the squares to the background squares, not even noticing when I came up short, lol, I just went and cut more. When, in fact, only the dark squares were sewn to the background, and the light squares were to be sewn to the yellow squares. Fortunately, I discovered the mistake before I cut more than a couple of the triangles apart. LMBO Yes, I got to spend time with my new and good friend seam ripper.
