while i am waiting for the postman

hello friends,while i am waiting for the postman to bring me a new quilting template for the tree quilt, i cleaned up a bit in my sewingroom, and i found this tool, it was a gift from my sister in law years ago, and i had nearly forgotten,that i had it. you know , i need to do something with my hands, and so i began a clamshell quilt, this tool is just fantastic, you only need to draft the clamshell with the seem allowance on the right side of the fabric, and then you can start to sew, and i wanted to make a clamshell quilt for years, so i grabbed my 5 inch charm packs ... and i am off sewing, have a nice weekend all of you, susi
