I worked on it in stages, starting first with making all the Flying Geese units, then all the black/white half square triangles.<br /><br />I take and edited all my own photos - I use a Pentax camera. I don't have any lighting equipment so all photos are taken outside. I then edit the images using photoshop. Taking photos isn't one of my favorite tasks!Red Pepper Quilts - Rita Hodgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16146251579528285964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7027731275129684828.post-84210633359216473062014-11-23T17:47:30.588+11:002014-11-23T17:47:30.588+11:00Hi Kathaleeny - I wasn't overly mindful of th...Hi Kathaleeny - I wasn't overly mindful of the direction of the fabric and cut pieces no different to how I would cut pieces from any other fabric.
