YIPPEE!!!!! I went to the post office and my fabric from Thousands of Bolts was there. This is what I picked out with my gift certificate that I got for Christmas. Did I say thank you Shelley? If not...THANK YOU...THANK YOU. These are the two stonehenge wide back fabrics. I love them. They are the wide fabric (102") but I'm not sure what I'll use them for. I will let them visit their brothers and sister Stonehenge fabric until I do.
Here are the other two fabric. They are labeled "blue" but the colors are more like a sage green or something.
I think it would work out well in a civil war or repro project.
Then I spent some time tonight looking on YouTube for Cathedral Windows. I watched a couple and then just decided to jump in and wing it. Mind you, this was at 10:30 p.m. when I decided this. I have to work tomorrow so I must turn off brain and get to bed. Here is a mock up of my experiment.

I know what I will want to change on it. This was done cutting a 10" block and then kept folding it. :) The center is 2.5" and seems to work relatively well. I think that I will do what one of the videos suggested first. It said to baste 1/4" all the way around the squares before I start to fold. That will help with the corners I think. I hand stitched the two blocks together but will do one mock up with using the sewing machine.
That's it for tonight. I really must get to bed. LOL.
Everybody have a good night/day.
