They look great to me. You are truly a perfectionist.

Suggestions that I thought of have been said. Just wanted to say I like your test blocks.

If ou have a lot to yet, here's what I'd do - figure out how to make just the white parts a bit bigger. That means when you sew the HST the white side is longer on the pointed edge and the other section, the white it wider. Then when you piece them, they will be large enough for you to trim them ALL down to the correct size.

I saw it on a swap that's going on now,

The blocks don't look centered on the back ground , it doesn't look squared. your points look great to me, I don't think that's the problem. maybe just my eyes??? Hope you find the fix I love the pattern and your colors.

Those certainly don't look like test blocks. They look great. Please share finished quilt with us. I know it will be beautiful.

They look great to me. Make smaller seam allowances for the sashing and you will be all set. For the next few, make your side pieces wider than your pattern calls for to give room to have a 1/4 seam allowance, maybe? It could be they are out of whack in the pattern.
I make all my test pieces pieces out of greens, aquas and blues and then put them all together in a "sampler of oops" quilt! Most people don't realize they are test patterns and i have a stack of color-coordianted quilts to keep me warm.

What a great idea!!! :)

If I do a test block, I do only one, taking it apart and redoing it as many times as needed...sometimes I have to put in new pieces because they get ripped after so many stitch removals! LOL

I just looked at the pics of the ones you have made. Try cutting the white pieces a little bit larger.

This is the way I do it too! Maybe we need to change our tactics? Naaa!
