    Quick update - we did get clobbered by the storm here in CT - 27", they have a no travel ban in the town of North Branford and they canceled school AGAIN. Those kids will be going until July!!!
    I did get some squares cut but its a little slow because I am also cutting an extra strip to do a French braid quilt. I had saved my old cutting mat so what I did was cut a 60 degree half hexagon template from the cutting mat using the template pattern in the Fons and Porter Scrap Quilts magazine. The template can be used to outline the pattern and because I smoothed the edges with my sander, it can be used with a rotary cutter if I am careful. Each strip yields about 7 half hexagons. You guys get the benefit of my playing around with this - I cut templates for each of us so your birthday envelopes will include a template and a copy of the instuctions to make a 60 degree French Braid. This is an addictive pattern, fair warning! AND it beat shoveling snow and more snow!!!! ugh

    well that is a lot of snow...In Michigan we only got around 4-5 inches. I stayed home all day and sewed!!! I LOVE snow days. I am a nanny so the parents stay home with the kids so I don't have to work. (they are so nice to me they don't want me to travel in the bad weather)

    I will post a question tomorrow night sometime after 6pm. PM me your answer by 6pm tuesday,.....I will put everyone who is right in a hat and pull out a winner....and send you a prize!!!
    (I am eastern standard time so all contests will use eastern standard time)
