    I used a blanket stitch with silk thread to catch most of the edges. Anything that has dimension was left alone.

    It's one of those "Quilt in a Day" patterns. Ha ha. More like a block in a day in my world! :D

    I'll try to take better pictures tomorrow so that you can see the dimension.

    Oh ok, I see that now. I keep going back up for a closer look. I see the blanket stitch now, and I can see the dimension better too now that I know what I'm looking for. Those are just so pretty!

    You did a great job on those blocks. Thanks for sharing. I can't wait to see the whole quilt after you put it together.
