thanks ChaiQuilter. your short sharp instruction worked for me.
have done 3 sides & had to fudge a small amount in centre. In principal this is looking good. will now attempt to quilt. having already quilted up to the final border I am
finding I might need to do a bit of easing. the border appears larger than it should be. should I undo or is this a normal apparition? am sure quilt was laying flat before measuring for borders. so long ago now, who knows. does it really matter ?
will start quilting & see what develops. see you all in a week or so.
