Kass, that quilt is beautiful!

love the martini fabric D. Henson!

What size would be ideal for companion fabric(s)? I’m starting on getting my bags together and have plenty of corrdinating fabric to work with.

Ive been on a bit of an emotional roller coaster here... right before I signed up I had made the block of the month barn block from my sew sampler box and thought it turned out pretty good and I thought I was right on the 12 1/2 mark. Quite a confidence builder. Well... I remeasured and that darn thing is 12 1/4. *gulp*. All my confidence went right out the window. I was planning to do as someone suggested here and make each block out of my own fabric first to make sure I can do it. Simple blocks are acceptable right?

Im also wondering how much of a difference a scant vs regular 1/4 inch seam makes? I use my piecing foot already but was going to try moving the needle over 1 (once I figure out how to do it) and see if that helps.
