I've got everything cut out for both steps 1 & 2, and all of the squares marked for step 2. King size. Have not sewed anything yet. I was planning on sewing step 2 first, then going back and sewing step one because I thought step 2 would be the easier for me to sew and achieve a 3.5" square, but after reading your comments I'm beginning to wonder. I may sew one of each tomorrow evening and then decide which to sew first.
