Our guild recently made a sampler with specific instructions to use the provided "inspiration" fabric along with a provided "background" fabric and added pieces from their own stash in a specific color. All but 2 blocks arrive as described; however, one arrived with dimensions at least 1 inche larger all around and the other had NO 'inspiration" fabric at all. I resized the first to fit and just lived with the second. Both quilters were gracious enough to play along to meet our goal for a fundraiser, so we just made them work. The finished piece is wonderful. Sometimes you just gotta "make it work". That's what we're all about anyway!!!
