#popup

So I got 8 fat quarters and matched up a bolder Toscana for the accent and took them home.

Cutting took no time at all, I can cut eight layers of fabric at once and they were all getting cut the same way.

Unlike strip piecing you don’t cut, sew, subcut, sew again, and then possibly subcut and sew again. These blocks are all made individually because you have to match two fabrics together and add the accent in as well.

Popup is so fast. I think I started cutting at noon and I had all sixteen blocks laid out by 4pm.

Took a small break to make some supper and apple crisp, then went back in the evening to sew the blocks together and add the borders.

I deviated from the pattern here though and used the coordinating border print with mitered seams.

And then I waited for the dogs to put themselves to bed (which was 9pm, like usual) and drove into the shop and threw this sucker on the long arm!

I got home to put the binding on and went to bed at 2am.

✨ CSS popups (no JavaScript)

Some basic CSS popups I put together by utilizing <⁠l⁠a⁠b⁠e⁠l⁠ ⁠f⁠o⁠r⁠=⁠"⁠.⁠.⁠.⁠"⁠> and <⁠i⁠n⁠p⁠u⁠t⁠ ⁠t⁠y⁠p⁠e⁠=⁠"⁠r⁠a⁠d⁠i⁠o⁠"⁠> combinations together with its :checked state to mimic a <⁠d⁠i⁠a⁠l⁠o⁠g⁠> in its open/showModal() state.

Unlimited popups

Only 1 popup can be open/active at a time

Clicking outside the popup box will close all popups.
