Common injuries to the bodyâs ligaments include: sprains (or tears) and strains. While the tendons attach the muscle to bones, and the ligaments connect bone to bone and create and maintain joints, the fascia is a collective tissue that essentially holds the entire body together. The fascia is like a web of tissue that surrounds every muscle, bone, and organ in the body and holds everything in place.
A fat quarter of fabric is a one-fourth yard cut that usually measures 18 x 22. To create a fat quarter, cut a half-yard of fabric -- 18 along the fabric's lengthwise grain -- then cut that piece in half at its midpoint as illustrated.
Fat quarters allow you to cut longer strips along the lengthwise grain of the fabric (parallel to the selvage edge), which is preferable to crosswise because it is less stretchy. Fat quarters offer you much more flexibility to work with the directionality of the print.
