Thats kinda what I was thinking, Lesley...This quilt should be fine...I just read that this morning and my immediate thought was " WHAT???!!!"
Thats a good idea about starting in the center of each border, but I already have quilted the pieced tris, so they are already on the batting. I'll have to sew them to the betweens just like I sewed the center blocks together. Thats why I was thinking, I'll have to baste the batting to them and trim them up, then sew as before to make it work. Thanks for your 2 pennyworth...thats why I ask!LOL!
