Pink Tease :D

Here's an in-progress picture of the project I'm working on today.  This is part of a new-to-me project - I've done lots of paper piecing before, but this project has a bit of a piecing "twist" to it.  I'm foundation piecing it - thanks to the lovely light table my hubby made for me it was easy enough to trace the pattern onto an old sheet, but the block construction and then it's insertion into the actual project, is something I haven't done before.  If it works, I can see at least one more application for it!  I'll post another picture when I get the other part of the block done ;)

Pink tease :)  BTW - the white foundation is showing in parts only because I left myself almost 1" borders, to allow lots of fudge (room for error and angles) when assembling the project :D  I didn't come up short anywhere - a common problem with paper piecing and angles, lol

On an unrelated note, who else uses the OneNote program?  I really just started using it a few days ago on my Win10 laptop - I didn't look into it until I got more comfortable with Windows 10, then decided to try it.  I like it!  I had to get a Microsoft account to use it, and then Microsoft hijacked my laptop signin and changed it from a password I had chosen ... to the Microsoft password.  It took me a couple of days to figure out how to undo that --- how about, Microsoft, we opt in instead of having to opt out, hmmmmmmmmmm?  Hijacking is rude! Now I sign in the way "I" want to, and I'm having fun playing with this program.  It's good for me because I can easily share information between my two laptops :)

  1. Still on windows 7. I'm getting too old to make changes. On that note - going shopping for new phones for hubby (Old flip phone) and me (early smart phone) tomorrow. Okay with me. Hubby will pick anything offered and then bug me to death for the next three months on how it works....
    Happy foundation piecing.

  2. Geez, I couldn't find your comment form~~!!! I can't wait to see you and Dennis again! Anyway, I loved the vinyl bag and I am totally curious about what you are making!!! Do show when it is done! I've stuck with Microsoft 7; I just don't want to have to figure out something else. Fortunately both computers have it so we are good. Talk to you soon! Hugs, Mickie

  3. I haven't used One Note although I have upgraded to Windows 10. It changed the way I store my photos though, without even asking how rude is that :)

  4. I can't wait to see what this turns into! I do not use One Note, but I also have a macbook, so I"m not sure it's available to me, anyway
