I've had a few bumps in printing.  Tracing paper is a bit thin for the printer.   It will grab the paper and wrinkle it, so I find I need to hand feed each sheet.  If I leave the stack of regular paper in the printer to support the tracing paper and hand feed the tracing paper, I can get a wrinkle free print-out.
I plan to do the blocks in numerical order, printing out a few at a time.  Well, print them out numerically...maybe not sew them immediately.

some more

 I am going to try NOT to BUY anything for this quilt.  I have many pads of tracing paper..lots of thread, and lots and lots of fabric..




I have fabric in shoe cubbies..(above) , in plastic drawers in the hall, on the shelf above the cubbies, behind the door on a towel rack....stashed in a closet...
So, I shouldn't need to buy any.
I don't plan on using reproduction prints either.  Just what I have...and some I've had for...hmmm maybe 25 years  ....some fat quarters I have had for 30 years!!  Doesn't seem that long, but as I sit here and think about it..yes some FQ's are that old..  TIME TO USE 'EM UP!
I would definitely say that I was a fabraholic and threadaholic..

I don't even need to buy a batt
for this quilt..How did I start to accumulate so much?   Preparing for my retirement spurred on some purchases.  Others..I just like the fabric and bought it on speculation or sale.
Tomorrow....the blocks!
