4) I don't have time to make a whole quilt like this. This block took me 4 hours to do. I am sure as I get more practice it would take less time.
5) I found out what volcanoing is.
Candlequilter's tutorial was very easy to follow. I hope she can use my block.

Thank you for your quick reply. I was wondering, as the middle has a very slight volcano (not bad compared to the other two I made LOL maybe an "A" cup vs my "DD") and I was thinking if I could take the paper off and startch it it would lie flat.
