This page is going to be fun!!!
Great tip. I'm trying to make a lap quilt, but between my DGD's quilt, my guild's Round Robin and the QG's Row Robin, it seems to be a losing battle. But as soon as I can, I'll add my sashing, cornerstones and side triangles and post the 50 I've finished. Thanks. Belles
