Maybe I should write a quilt book "How to Fudge your way to Perfection." LOL, everybody tells me how perfect my quilts are. They are oh so wrong! I figured out fairly early on how to make things match up perfectly where it counts and ignore the rest. Everybody thought the log cabin I made for my husband was just soooo perfect, until I showed them the logs that are fat on one end and skinny on the other end.
Don't wash that fabric! Shrinkage and puckering are your friends!! LOL
