very nice. You will find that once you start making them, they are addictive! Great way to match up your bits and bobs of fabric since they only take 1/3 yd of 2 fabrics. Very quickly you will learn how to alter your stitch lines for the various sizes - 6" cut square = 5 1/2" finish so your stitch line is 2 3/4" down to 3/4". I also do a cut 5" square and a cut 4 1/2" square (this one I use to make small wreaths to use as easter baskets filling the petals with plastic eggs). The 4" has a 2" down to a shy 1/2" stitch line. But, if you center is larger, you can place something in it, if it is tighter, place your item on top of it! You can also cut a 4 1/2" square and band it to end up with a 5 1/2" finish for a completely different look.
