    Default candyland quilt

    I have been trying to sew the quilt candyland. My problem is, It is not going together correctly. It is a log cabin quilt and there is white squars in each corner of each block. They are not fitting together right. Should I take each block apart and start again ? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Could you post a picture of the problem please? It might be as simple as repressing the seams on alternate blocks so that they nest but a picture would definitely help.

    are the blocks square and are the white pieces the same measurement?? sometimes when we square, we trim a tad too much on one corner and maybe not on another.

    Could you give us a link to the pattern you are using? And to get a picture smaller to be able to post here, the method I use is to email the picture to myself and then upload it.

    All white squares are the same size. There are several blocks that are center blocks. They are the same size. The others are the same size.

    I have decided to take the squares apart and start all over again.
