I'm lucky the problems do not show. However, I did more ripping seams on this quilt than I've ever done before--one whole batch of strips was put together and then I cut on the 60degree line instead of the 45! They did NOT fit! (I wondered why the pattern had called for extra strips of each color -- Was I ever glad to have them!) I am happy with it and will probably try a bigger one. What is so frustrating to me is how when I think I am being so very careful, the seams still do not come out exactly like they should. This pattern is not as forgiving as some. Glad folks have enjoyed it.
