You may want to double check your seam allowances now and correct them so that you don't have as much trimming :wink: Pinning also helps to keep everything in place as you sew your rows together and may help lessen the amount of trimming needed, too :D:D:D |
Well you may have had a hard time but it doesn't look like you did. Very pretty.

Great Block!!! The more you do them, the easier they will be! Have fun!

very pretty

Nice job! You have enough room so you won't lose your points - that's always a hard thing for me. I'm also thinking about starting to make the 'outer' pieces larger than called for, just so I have some grace areas.

Sure is Pretty!
