You make a good team. Thanks for sharing with us.
Thank you so much for asking :-) Yes.....fortunately I did watch the revised version before I started on it. The offset is really only a 'guesstimate' and because I KNOW I did not "guess" exactly 3/8 inch each time, I feel pretty darn lucky that my points did match up so wonderfully. There were a couple of blocks that the points from each block were just a little off from each other....about 1/8 inch. Fun and easy pattern to work with.....although I did start with the wrong size paper I believe. I used the 10 inch squares that MSQC sells and had to cut them in half diagonally. Hope this helps,
