Winter, Winter/Holidays, Holidays Block Swap!! Sign ups til Oct. 29

You probably know more about it then I do, but when I did my applique blocks, I cut my background fabric 1/2 inch too large purposely, That way if they pulled and came out smaller I could still trim them to the size I wanted. Does that make sense? Leave them larger until after your pattern is embroidered on and then cut? HTH.

That is what I did, but they design did not lend itself to the 9.5" size so I need to add borders to fill the block up and make it look nicer. It will look more complete. If I get the two quilts quitled tonight, then will work on them and post a photo for you.
