Gotchya! Sort of like Bonnie Hunter's Weed Wacker ... It is a lovely quilt, by the way, if I didn't already say it.
You are correct ... stretch can be our friend <g> ...
sometimes, I am just underwhelmed with how inaccurate my best rotary cutting turns out :?
On the other hand, since not being perfect means I get to practice my art more, it can't all be a bad thing, eh? 8-)
