Yes, I came up with it myself. I do a lot of graphic design type work, so I'm more at home with laying stuff out on-screen than 'in real life' (!). PowerPoint's crop- to-shape function is ideally suited to making block shapes out of fabric photos.Quote:

I tend to not be able to think much that way..... but in my hands...I can't stop thinking. Look forward to seeing your finished product. I just got the half hexi ruler...and started a strip with it, but dont' like it! For some reason, mine doesn't look as nice as the one on Jenny's tut!
I just looked at the chemistry jelly roll...that'd be a good one for Valentines day or Christmas...or add some blue for Patriotic theme.
