Awesome!! :thumbup:
What are the little basting stitches, on each little square, for?
I am using the English Paper Piecing method - I cut my graph paper into 2cm squares, then bast the fabric round each piece of paper. The squares are then whip stitched together on their edges, which means there is no problem getting the corners to match. (paper is removed either as you go along, or all at the end, but there are some quilts in existence that the paper was left in for warmth!)
I think your quilt is wonderful and now I can see it would be a great 'take along' project. Do you just eyeball it when you cut your pieces of fabric?
