I love this block, but it seems like the seams are awfully bulky. Is there any way to not have so much bulk? I'll post a pic if I can get my camera to work tomorrow. All the blocks so far are just gorgeous! I think I could have made a quilt in the time it took to do this one. I had a lot of mishaps (haven't done a lot of pp'ing). But I do like the way it looks! :-D :-D

Thank y'all. I really do like it. Just wish I knew how to not have so much bulk in the seams. But I'm not sure you have much control over the seams when you are pp'ing. IDK, as this is just my second effort at it.

The owner of my LQS told me she had all kinds of seams meeting in the middle once and she took a rubber mallet and she beat it into submission. She said it worked!!! I haven't tried it yet.......
