Hi Nancy,

 NB>  NB>> Good show...  :)   That sounds like a nice quilt, too...  :)

 RH> As long as I don't do a bonehead like I did yesterday, cutting 2/3 of
 RH> my white strips 12" instead of 12 1/2". But, I can get another yard or
 RH> so of white for the reverse quilt and use the strips in another
 RH> project.

 NB> Whoops...  At least white is usually pretty easy to match... ;)

And be used in a lot of other projects. I'm going to buy more of the
Kona white to match it tho.

 NB>  RH>> We'll do it as 4 blocks, with black "leading" strips to make it
 NB> look  RH>> like a stained glass piece too.
 NB>  NB>> Will the blocks be done by four different people, then...?  That
 NB> can  NB>> be fun, to collaborate on something like that...  :)

 RH> Most likely the same person, for consistancy in sewing. My quarter
 RH> inch seam may be a millimeter or 2 larger or smaller than your quarter
 RH> inch seam and the blocks wouldn't line up.

 NB> Ah...  yeah, that could be a problem...

Yep! (G)

 NB>  RH>> Have to ask when you go there for your pre Christmas meal.
 NB>  NB>> If I think of it then...  :)   Or if I think of it in the
 NB> meantime,  NB>> sometime when we go there in between...  :)

 RH> You'll remember, just after you leave the restaurant. (G)

 NB> Probably.   (G)   If I haven't left the parking lot, I might consider
 NB> running back in to ask.... ;)

If the owner remembers. He may have been busy enough not to really
notice them.

 NB>  RH>> As I did once with a 3 bean salad. Instead of using green, wax
 NB> and  RH>> kidney beans, IIRC, I used black, white and (I think) red
 NB> beans in the  RH>> traditional marinade. Same salad, different beans.

 NB>  NB>> Not quite the same salad...  ;)   But at least the same
 NB> marinade... ;)  NB>> I've seen versions that were 4-bean (added
 NB> chickpeas to the
 NB>  NB>> traditional 3), and ones that added other things to the mix...
 NB> That's  NB>> something I tend to buy canned...  Read's is pretty good
 NB> and quick for  NB>> the spur of the moment deciding you need something
 NB> like that to round  NB>> out a meal. ;)

 RH> I make it for pot lucks and such like but have tried the canned for
 RH> the 2 of us. Not bad, but not great. OTOH, I tried their German potato
 RH> salad and would rather make my own.

 NB> I've had worse... (G)

I've had some worse, some a lot better.
