Oh...I just read this is a chevron quilt. I just made one also and boy working with the bias on that one was hard!!! I had the worst time putting on the borders. I have not quilted mine yet...next weekend. This is not a quilt for a beginner...I made it to see how hard it would be for a girl at work that wants to learn to quilt. Nope....that is not a quilt for a beginner.
