I went through the small pieces of Wishwell Weather Report fabric to cut some half rectangle triangles for enlarging a quilt top. There are 44 pieces in these piles.
I will need 20 of them to add one column of blocks on a side, and I'm doing both sides, needing 40 of them. I have a little bag of leftover triangles from when I made the top, but it was in the basement when I was writing this post and I didn't want to go down there to get it. I don't think there are more than a dozen pieces in the bag. I still have a layer cake of this fabric line so I can pull out all of the light fabrics from it. I want to add a double row across the top which will take 64 pieces. This top is only 41" x 59.5" right now and adding these planned columns and rows will increase it to 47" x 71.5". That is close to the 50" x 70" size that I like to make. I could increase it to 50" with one more column. I'll just do more cutting and then decide.
It was -2 yesterday morning and it got up 7 degrees by 1:45 p.m. when I had to leave to go to PT. Wednesday will be our heat wave at 30 degrees and then back to the deep freeze.
