Many years ago Our newly formed quilt guild decided to make a thank you quilt. Mostly we were newbies, and with great enthusiasm everybody made several blocks. When I finally cpllected them all, and brought them home to assemble, I discovered that I had TWO sets of blocks. One set with larger than 1/4 inch seams - and one set with smaller than 1/4 inch seams.
I has so many blocks that we ended up with 2 quilts! So we had one quilt for a thank you and the other for our first raffle quilt. But there was a definite difference in the finished size of the two quilts!
It was an interesting lesson.
But it was such fun too!
