thank you, again. we had to go out and shovel snow, long driveway and after that was too tired to sew, maybe today will make some more progress. I will post the finished top when is done.

I looked on You Tube, I think it was a Fons and Porter tutorial, which suggests pressing the seams open. It also defines the X much better than pressing to one side. I am going to try this with diamond blocks, and a prayer! By the way, I still think you have a done a magnificent job on your blocks, I wish mine looked half as good.
