It's not like you are going to wash a size 10 cotton T that is made in Sri-Lanka on the hot cycle in your machine and it comes out just large enought to fit a Barbie. I think the shrinkage factor on thread is so minute that it wouldn't even be a blip on the quilt police. Besides, there will be quilting stitches to secure the whole top. Me thinks you worry too much.
Beautifully resolved btw!
LOL! Mad...who wears a 10? (my youngest DD wears a 6! :roll:...poor thing is so small she can't lift a fork very often :lol: )
Amma...girlfriend, listen,...if all my "mistakes", as you referred to this block in the beginning,...looked as good as this, I would be one happy camper! WOO HOO...and...WHEET WHOO!
