I came across a quilting blog today that really excited me. Jennifer at That Girl...That Quilts has a method for making half square triangles that really intrigued me. Check out her site here http://www.thatgirlthatquilt.com/2011/03/have-stitchin-weekend.html. She takes a square, stitched all the way around it and then cuts it diagonally twice to make 4 half square triangle blocks. I never would have thought of that. She also gives the math to make your hst's any size you need. How fun! She is doing a Have a Stitchin' Weekend projects posted every Friday. I am anxious to see what else Jennifer does and what new tricks I can learn.
Happy sewing and quilting.

New Great Babies
Wow, our family is growing so fast.
February 1, Alisha, Jake & Emelyn received a baby boy, Isaiah.
Then on February 26, Valerie & Justin had a baby boy, Jeremiah.
February 27th, Chris & Megan had a baby boy, Gabriel.
(2 prophets and 1 angel within a month--we have been blessed!) Three grandsons within 4 weeks for Cathy and Joe.
Dana & Joe were to sign the final adoption papers on Andrea, Ernie & Amanda today. That is three more grandchildren for Cathy. That makes 10 grandchildren for Cathy and 3 grandchildren for Karen - 13 great babies for me. That is 53 of us if we all get together at once. I think that is fantastic. I have 19 nieces & nephews plus 8 spouses & now 13 great nieces & nephews (Great-Babies).
Our family is so blessed. All are here safely & healthy.
