They also say that the Amish intentionally put a mistake in their quilts for this reason. We'll just say that's what you did and I don't mind a bit! :thumbup: I mailed mine in yesterday!

If it were only 1/8", I'd ask for forgiveness. It's more like 1/4". But not to worry, I always have a back up plan!

If they ended up all the same size, like you said, you can always use them yourself.

If you do make another set, maybe just do one block first and check it out before making more?
