Waving High And Wide from Missouri. Glad to meet your acquaintance, B'dette. I will be watching for your reply to the above since it holds my interest. Seems like I can never finish a quilt to an exact pattern so perhaps I will never have a problem. lol Yet, I wonder about this as I have used a block pattern from a magazine but set it up in a lap quilt as I saw fit.
