Patty, you will find this really weird...I made the 7" blocks for the center and then I enlarged the blocks for the outer border, so I'm working on 10" blocks now. When I first started the larger ones, I thought..wow, these are easier...but now, I don't think so...You have so much more fabric to roll up so you don't squish wrinkles into it the I have a hard time holding the little points down with my left thumb when I am stitching! (Well, DH does occasionally say that I would gripe if I was hung with a NEW rope!) LOL!
