I used a standard 6x12 ruler ... would that make a difference? I also made 60 degree triangles, and yet in a lot of the patterns I saw 30 degrees ... didn't understand that - unless they were making them super small!
I also made my strips 4 inches wide instead of the 3.75. It's much easier (in my mind) to work with whole or half numbers than these 1/4 or 3/4 numbers. I figure it's my quilt, I can make it bigger or smaller if I want!
QuiltE - your quilt is gorgeous! I love the variation of colours!
The fabrics that I bought are these two:

Well, I just clicked on it and realized it brought you to the "group". I chose the ones with the big flowers and one has a purple background and the other a light teal.
I'm hoping to have better luck with those
Thanks for all the comments.
