I did a long chain of white, black, red squares. I think they were 2" and I just kept sewing them. Don't know why, just did. Now I know what I'm going to do with them. Great borders! thanks, mistakes aren't mistakes, they are left turns. I have a friend who goes only to the right. She'll drive around and around this big city and never turn left. She will gasp when she is riding with me and I make a left turn....like it is a mistake. SO, from now on, I'm not making mistakes, just left turns. I just learned a new idea from your left turn, blueribbontoes. Thanks
