5/8" before sewing, finish off to about 1/4". Amazing since he has big hands and is always asking me to help him on other things, saying "I need someone with little fingers.."

Sewed on machine, quilted by hand.

They are spectacular!

Is 5/8" the cut size or finished size?

What is the seam allowance width?

Makes one feel guilty for throwing small scraps away.

Missed the 5/8 cut size in a previous post. :oops:
