Outside cutting



Wonderful Saturday here in our Eifel region in Germany. About 72° F. I'm on my roof terrace, cutting the backs of about 50 deboned shirts into fat quarters and folding them, while watching some archived Quilt Cam episodes.

THE LONG AND STONY WINSTON WAYS ....

Under my needle today:
"Winston Ways" blocks. Pattern by Bonnie K. Hunter / quiltville.com




I sewed together those two units and lost the points. Ripped them. Sewed them again. Thought that the points came out a little better, but weren't perfect yet. Ripped them again. Sewed again. Got perfect matching points. And ... realized that the points do not have to match, as the pattern tells me they have to be in opposite directions.... Oh my Gosh!

Dear Bonnie,
Your Winston "Ways" are long and stony.... 

That is the correct way to sew this unit:



Tis is , ho
