This grandmother of the bride needs to take myself to the veil and do some pearling. I need quickly, however, to mention to Zimmy: (1) welcome and (2) maybe your beginning with triangles puzzle is simply how they are pictured in patterns. All too often, an illustration will show a point of a triangle all the way at the cut edge - when, in reality, it must float to still have a point when stitched to the next piece. Some one else can explain this better - but what I have in mind, for example - is a flying geese sort of triangle. The books and magazines usually show the piece as pointed. Confused me just no end when I was trying to figure out 'how does that work?'. Not just confused; also frustrated and pretty close to having a hissy fit. Polly
