    Wow, love the two-sided quilt. Was that what made it a hard quilt to finish? I've never attempted one but thought about it with all these flimsy's to finish.

    Heads UP! Paper piecers, measure your prints. I had to print at 103% on my printer to get it to come out the correct size. Mine printed, a tad too small.

    Oh how I love my fine china. But I never use it. I do look at it every once and a while. For us it's disposable. Entertaining is usually a BBQ or a shrimp boil.

    Just today, had to cut 2 3/4 inch squares and at some point, I went to 2 1/2 inch squares. Didn't realize it till I didn't get overlap after sewing. Now I have lots of 2 1/2 inch squares.

    I rarely make a pattern the way it's stated. I like rectangular quilts so any that are square are adjusted. For the units, I have favorite ways to make them and if the looks the same, I do it my way.

    It can get confusing. One of the first things I do when I print out the clues is mark the directions with the colors that I am using. Especially if I use one of the colors in the clue in another spot.
