    Wow did you come up with the power point method of quilt designing? It is just awesome! I'm an afficianato of PP myself, I am going to try this. Very cool!

    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.

    I use graph paper..well, not even that. I have a spiral notebook and make the "graph" squars myself and use markers! Works well for me. I really don't want to spend the time to learn the Power Point way. I also like to be able to take it with me if I want to do it on commercials while watching a show or at the kitchen table...I don't like sitting in front of the computer all the time! 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.
