about washing the additional blocks I am adding. DUH! I had 8 blocks made when something hit me on the head like a brick! The "OH NO" thought. So I got them washed and dried and they lost about a 1/4". I still have more of those blocks to make so I am thinking I need to make them first and then wash the block afterwards. That way hopefully of those blocks will shrink the same. If needed I can add a border around each block if needed. I just wash my sashing fabric and gonna wash the borders and backing before cutting!
Here is a partial layout. I still have 6 more boom blocks and I need to make more of the others.
Thanks Y'all for such great blocks. I am gonna love this quilt! I already do!
The lighting isn't even on this pic. My design wall is in the hallway.
