I agree Emma S... I'm always trying to use the lines that are already in the top to avoid marking to begin with and it just seems to work best on these tops with "sashed" blocks.
How mini are your 9P blocks oksewglad?
I'm on a mad mission to finish 20 UFOs this quarter because I have my heart set on finishing out my Year of FINISH with less than 25 UFOs. So 2 down... 18 to go! Call me crazy but I think I'll get it done. I really want to start 2014 with MUCH less UFO baggage and try out life as a quilter who makes new things AND finishes them too!
