Yes, I learned a lot. Between your class and Tanya's chat I know a lot more stitches on the loom.

We are lucky to have so many people that will share what they have learned on this list.

That gave us two squares together. Now I am sewing them together to make ten squares in a row. I have a blue print and a bright yellow print. I don't think it will get done for the quilt challenge on the Blind quilters group But maybe the next one they have.

Now I spent the night trying to figure out what one could do with so much I cord. This morning, I tied knots in the cord to make one decade of the rosary. So that was ten Hail Mary beads and a Lord's Prayer bead. Now for a cross.
