    OMG! Fantastic idea. Off to the pantry to grab a roll before DH gets up. He'll think I spilled something. Nope! lol

    I took a class once at a quilt show I think called Finished to Size or something like that. We used paper towels to make a test block. Bounty was the best paper towel to use. We also learned how to use freezer paper in case our blocks were off a little from the finished size especially putting together blocks made by others to go with each other and finish to size. I use this method a lot. I'll see if there is video.
