Any suggestions?
I'm working on a queen right now. Have made a table runner, lap quilt and couch throw. I cut squares using an old sheet, starched them well. Then just pick up the pieces and sew. I use decorative stitches on them after the sq. is full, sq. up and that block is finished. I make my foundation 13" & trim them down after I am finished. All of the stitching takes up some of the foundation, so cut them a bit larger than you want your finished block. You can make them any size you wish. Hope this helps. Marge
