but let me clarify something..
30 inches finished = 30 1/2 unfinshed...
The finished measurement is what it will be when in the completed quilt..
Add your seam allowances to get the unfinished measurement.. or the measurment that it will be when you send it on...

shouldn't it be 24" center=24.5", add 3" borders (3.5" unfinshed)=30.5" because you always want to end up with the .5" seam allowance? oh yeah, before I forget, what's the next round after the first 3" border? I have the flu/virus today and I'm all fuzzy headed.

Oh yeah...the next border should be 6" finished according to the original instructions.

Hi everyone. I helped out and made Missi's second row. This one will be going to Janw and is all set to mail on Tuesday.
Sorry about the photo the colors of course aren't perfect (I tried it with and without the flash) Tell me how do the fabric stores do it? ;)

Thanks ladies, I hate that the photo makes it look like I'm color handicapped though. :( Handicapped yes, color handicapped that's just not fair. :lol:
I did try to close the gap so this last center could catch up with the rest of you. :-)
