Do you usually make a test block before making your quilts?
#15
I just did this yesterday to practice setting in seams on an eight pointed star. I made a test portion with only two points of some of my scrap fabric, then taught myself how to 'insert' the square block in between the points. It came out flawless in the scrap version. But of course there is the tiniest pucker in my real 8 pointed star. Go figure!

On my to do list for sure :D
