    This is the type of pattern that you have to be RIGHT on with ALL your seams otherwise it will be wonky. To me in the photo that center 1/4" seam looks a little skimpy but I think that once you quilt it, that any wonkyness will be able to be stabilized. Cute pattern.

    I really love your quilting... it is beautiful... Last night someone suggested that I had scorched the starch and I should soak it over night... I did and most came out... a little on seam lines... I will try lemon juice and sunshine later... tea dying is a great idea or I think if I quilt heavily in those areas, I may be ok.

    Did you use any special rulers... I just made templates...

    Prism99.. Thank you... I soaked overnight and most came out. Thank you so much.. I feel much better this morning

    That's really beautiful, sdeaaz! hoping you feel much better about it now. Nativetexan, your pieces are fascinating. I like those easier versions.
