Thank you! It looks intimidating....I stared at the cutting chart for a year and a half...avoided it..frankly...LOL!
Buy a box of cheap zip baggies and mark with a Sharpie each bag with the size cut . Separate baggies for each color/cut. I piled each color in a separate shoe box. Organizing each cut is key to getting this project done. Actually took 3 weekends (cut one weekend....sewed each block over two weekends...only two blocks in this project) to complete the original top as written. Only after I was “done” with the top...DH wanted it enlarged..... brainstormed about the extra “border”....I slept on options for a while then...bingo! We are very happy with the final project.
