I am working on a "Midnight Garden" quilt, which I have personally renamed Nightmare in the Garden! In the center where all those nasty little seams come together, I am getting a "lump" and having trouble getting the corners to match up because of the fabric build up. I am trying to make sure that the seams are all pressed the right way but there 109 pieces in the block and I can't seem to plan far enough ahead to have them all match the right way. Is there a way to make sure the seams are the right way at the beginning? I am really hoping there is a shortcut. I plan to make this block into a throw pillow that I will quilt myself...with absoulutely NO meandering. But I hope to make a matching full size quilt.

I love the block. Your fabric choices really make it sharp. On the seam allowance, no ideas.

Don't know about the seam allowances, but the block is gorgeous!

Gorgeous block, great job. Maybe try pressing your seams open ?

That many seams, I agree with woody maybe pressing open would give less bulk!

Love your block. I would press the seams open too.

Not much of a help, but your block sure is pretty.

Very pretty. My dad would love it, because he loves horses.

Gorgeous quilt block. I would also press open and use alot of starch to make it lay flat.
