I'm here this weekend, and ready to work on my Circa 1880 quilt pieces. I'm ironing today, after starching 128 different reproduction fabrics and letting it dry. After ironing, I cut strips into 1" and 1-1/2" sizes. The Circa 1880 blocks are 2" finished! I'm making it a queen size so there will be over 700 2-inch blocks when I'm finished.
