    As long as your DH isn't like Stam - sitting around in a dirty string vest, scratching himself in inapropriate places! :?

    From now on you will be Hilda to me!

    No thankfully my ex wasn't called Stan, or acted like him but we were always nicknamed stan and Hilda when we first got married...I STILL hate that surname, another reason why I should get married to John and finally see the back of it lol!! :D

    Well Izy i was just gob smacked when I saw what you had done with these itzy bitzy, teeny weeny bits of fabric. You are a genius no getting away from it. I just wouldnīt have this infinite patience that you have to a) pick through all those scraps and b) cut them out so tiny.

    :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: so there ya go.

    Well Elle, although I organised the scraps into usable sizes starting at 6" down to 2" squares, and 3,2,1.5" strips, I haven't really used much of them yet, just all the odd bits and triangles left from other projects, it's just a case of grabbing a bit, seeing if it fits and getting it stitched asap, as long as the colours contrast, and I try and not use the same fabrics if I can, thats it!! Did you see the link on the other Dear Jane thread to the miniature foundation piecing blocks I posted for you to check out? :D
