    Does anyone know how to cut the front pocket so you only get the design and not part of the other block? I have the rows that I'm using for the front and back top piece and the blocks and the diamonds. Which ever way I measure for the pocket, I am getting part of the next design.

    I would just center the fabric keeping in mind your 1/4 inch seams on the top and bottom, or you could make the pocket a little bit smaller.

    I tried the fussy cut but still am getting part of the other block when cutting it smaller. I'll try the framing. Thanks. Keep the suggestions coming.
