Me too! Don't know how many sets yet.

I have two bags from last time I have almost finished sewing around for the pp part. Then need to sew together. This part of it is a great QAYG project. I take it everywhere we go in the car.

Suggestion:

When using the squares, use a 5 inch template to make sure it's "standard" size - if not, then use a 4-1/2 inch template to draw the stitching line.

I've found that even though I think we all try to cut accurately, sometimes our rulers seem to vary, or how we position them varies.

On a 5 inch block, even 1/8 of an inch seems to make a difference.

Another thing I've learned:

I've cut a 5-inch square of template plastic and then used the 1/4 inch quilter's tape to "frame" it to the 4-1/2 inch fabric that will be showing to audition the fabrics. Some prints seem to work well being cut into 5-inch squares, and some work out better cut either smaller or larger.

Some prints are great for "fussy cutting", but they do waste some fabric.
