I saw the tute for the 3 seam block: Thinking of making quilt with this cool block.nothing could be easier, right? Right. 1st time, I got the center piece sewn into the wrong seam. Then got it behind instead of between. then realized it was upside down. Finally after 4 trys, got it right. A little wonky, the center block is not very square, but now I have the idea. Okay, I made in a size that will work well for a pot holder. easy peasy, right? right. First I sewed the sandwich together so the batting was on the outside. then I sewed it so the backing was wrong side out. Finally, I basted, triple checked, and finally got it right. What should have been a 30 minute project ended up taking all afternoon. grrrr.
