uhh, no. remember, I screwed it up, so it wasn't working.
But then I remembered the two inch borders I cut off. So I told my cat to move and then I sewed them down the middle and came up with this bad boy. It's wonky (my middle name). I'm sure you skilled engineering masters could do a better version of this so I thought I'd share the idea. I apologize if I offend the quilt police. ;)
Hey I like that! It is scrappy looking in a controlled way. Hmmmm...another idea!!!! OH OH!!!!!
