Keep plugging away at it and let us see it finished.

The first couple of blocks I did, I didn't like it, but the more blocks I added, the better it looked.
I cut a few strips out and sewed them together, 1/4 seam, I found that it was tight, NO room for error. The next piece I cut out was the 2 inch strip and i added just about 1/32 to 1/16th to it. (one stitch line) Instead of cutting an exact 2 inch, I moved the ruler over to the right, a tad, just where I could barely see the strip on the left side of the strip and they came out much better. I also found that if I started sewing from the small red, (center small circle) I could control matching the seams better. Spray starching as I went along also helped.
