Yippee! I don't feel so bad now!
Last quilt I made, I was going to do 12" block of jean material and at last minute decided to do block of quarter triangles of jean and my main fabric instead....When sewed triangles together, couldn't figure out why they weren't same size as other 12" blocks in the quilt....DUUUUUUUHHHHHH!!!
If you sew triangles together you have to use something called a "seam"! You don't just lay the triangles butted together!
WHAT AN IDIOT!!! Who would have thought you have to ADD to the size when you have a seam in there????
:lol: :lol: Luckily it was only quilt for myself!! :oops:
