Coventry, do you remove the basting at all? Do you press well after removing the paper? I am sooo close to starting one of these to use up stash....probably won't make a dent, but at one time I was cutting my stash into either 2" or 2.5" strips....just have to dig out the boxes of them. I made the quilt called Insanity, and used Inklingo to print them on fabric...1/2" pieces! So I'm looking for something to make a little larger. Love your quilt! Looks really crisp, too.
