Hi Lots2do (I love that...does it ever change to Allcaughtup?

:D Re: the gridwork...first I stitched in the the ditch on the blocks. Then I used 1.5 inch blue painters tape to mark the lines going through the middle of the blocks. Then I switched to a Clover fine line white marker for the rest of the lines. Unfortunately, I ran out of the white ink right at the end so I eyeballed a few short lines. After that I am looking forward to doing a table runner!
