Linda, so if the pattern calls for the square to be 3 7/8 you make the square 4 1/8 then cut it into a HST? You always add 1/4" to what the pattern calls for? The one trick that someone taught me that has been a life saver is after the squares/HST or whatever are sewn to "trim" them to the size it calls for....so much easier to make them fit into the pattern if they are the correct size and some NOT just a tad off! Gave the blue quilt from one of the booms to a friend for his birthday yesterday and I must say it looks fantastic on his bed, manly...thought that would be better than the mauve, flowerly one!
Finished my black/white top for my son for Christmas...Back to 5 to go to the quilters.
When is the next swap??? LOL
