So then I finished it, and was in love and the blasted thing was 1/2" too short, so no problem, I slapped a little border on it, was going to trim the border down and nearly chopped the block bits.. EEEK.. Murphy.. why you gotta come and screw everything up? It was going so awesomely. So now I have to very carefully repair that side and trim it again hehe. But I might lose a tiny little point. But I"m still in love with the block.
