As they are in a number of other projects. I'd say math is certainly not their specialty. And I am quite bothered that they won't acknowledge this.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04090568094652766883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-720037327998881854.post-36404874111791208672012-06-11T09:48:58.212-07:002012-06-11T09:48:58.212-07:00I have some questions regarding Freshman Year page...I have some questions regarding Freshman Year page 41 (Harriet’s Triple Rail Fence project). <br /><br />1. Based on the yardage required list (1/4 yd. for Fabric 1, 2, 3,and 4; ½ yard for Fabric 5) there will be insufficient fabric to cut six (6) 1.75” inch strips. 6 x 1.75” = 10.5inches (greater than 9 inches). I did check the errata for this and noted that you state “the yardage is not wrong, but if you just cut the number of strips we tell you to cut it will seem that way….” That’s confusing to me. Please clarify – is the fabric requirement ¼ yard or should it be ½ yard?<br />2. I understand how there are 6 sets of strip set A needed and 5 sets for Strip Set B. But I am supposed to cut 6 strips of Fabric 1,2,3,4 and 12 of 5. Would have thought I would need 6 strips of Fabrics 1,2, 5 for Strip Set A and 5 strips of Fabric 3,4, 5 for Strip Set B – this is supported by your calculations in column 2. This would result in needing 11 strips of Fabric 5. Are we cutting an extra “just in case”?<br />3. At the ** note: to determine yardage.. Figure 5 strips x 1.75”. If 6 are being cut … why are we figuring yardage for only 5?<br />Not trying to be slow or difficult but am working very deliberately at this and want to really understand the foundations before moving forward. Already the work done is showing both vast improvement and benefits on other little projects I’ve tried.Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02466461103348858933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-720037327998881854.post-67379669572940601152011-02-05T21:43:27.457-08:002011-02-05T21:43:27.457-08:00Thank you for these corrections - I found them on ...Thank you for these corrections - I found them on Lesley's blog...are there any more since Jan. 21, 2010?
