Looks terrific! :thumbup:
And really, the more you do, the faster, easier & less tedious it gets. Honest! :wink:

Thanks

This is not going to be a quilt. This will go to a swap next week.

LOL on the ripping, 1 time one of the fabrics was folded caddy wompas, 1 of the rippings i had to wide of a seam and it didnt meet the seam allowance (about a hundred times. I have ripped out more on PP'ing than I have anything else.

I have learned what to do and what NOT to do now.

Same with me...it goes kinda slow and is somewhat tedious, but I LOVE the end result. Those straight lines and sharp corner points just SING to me!!! :mrgreen: :-D :lol:
