OOOOO, nice block. Simple form but interesting because of the color placement.
I haven't worked on my Boom Squirrels quilt in a week. My how time flies. Tomorrow is my quilting Zoom, so I should make some serious progress on both quilts. Finish one top and get really close to the finish on the second top.

Sewbiz this was made with the go die. I used scant 1/4” and the block is off about 1/8” all around. Next I will try making one starching the heck out of the fabric and see if that does the trick
WMUT oh boy 2 more quilts we can see soon
Off to take hubby for his colonoscopy.

Terri, I've found discrepancies with the Go cuts too. I think it's best to use them when all the blocks in the quilt will be the same. Then exact size doesn't matter as much. Your block is still striking!
Hope your hubby does ok.
I am so sad since learning yesterday that my all time music HERO, Brian Wilson, passed away. I loved that man and always will. Very sad. What a gift he was to us.

I agree on the accuquilt dies TG, I have a lot of them and don’t use them for the booms but I like this die so much it’s worth trying out a few things to work on the 12.5” size
Hubby had only one polyp that was removed. Now we wait. He said everyone he came in contact was professional and appeared to be knowledgable and he was very happy with his decision to start doctoring closer to home. He rarely goes to the doc so it wasn’t a big deal to drive into the cities once or twice a year. BUT now that he is getting older more appointments have been popping up.😱

Here is Boom 32 Quilt #1 top finished. I am in awe of the blocks and may just keep it for myself. That means I will be sending it out for long arm treatment. Boom 32 #2 will be finished tomorrow. All I need is to make one more additional block and slip it in its place.That one I will quilt myself.
One with inspector is on the job and right in the center of things. How did she do that?
