Dublb, it must feel good to be one step closer to the end of the move.
Mother can be made with no Y seams. Really. and even easily than I did, I think. The way I did it was to eliminate four "H" pieces...[ATTACH=CONFIG]547511[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]547512[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]547513[/ATTACH] Stop at the seam allowance intersection, so the gusset piece can fit in there...[ATTACH=CONFIG]547514[/ATTACH] Giving you a straight seam on the center piece, no Y seam.[ATTACH=CONFIG]547515[/ATTACH] Looking at the results, I wonder if the strip can be extended and not have a corner insert piece at all. You do still need the four small H pieces to make the 'arrow' straight on the end. Good luck with Mother. Mrs. Anderson is a doll, I could make a whole quilt of her block!
