I second sewbizgirl's suggestion of piecing the past. The designer's name is Debbie McInnis and she is most helpful when it come to problems. You can buy a kit if you want. I've done about 3 with her and have always been pleased with the end result Her approach is good for me since I am a messy quilter. You cut the pieces a llittle bigger and then trim them down. There are some real stunning interpretations if you Google or look in Pinterest. Let us see what you do.... Marcia
