I'm trying to think of a way to shrink the middle a bit. get a piece of corrurgated? cardboard.stick pins in the block around the edges first and then on the major seams from the outside towards the middle--until uou get to where it won't lay flat--then spray or dab it with water in the area where it won't lay
flat and let it air dry. See if that helps. I know that when I spray fabric with the steam iron it goes back to it's original size. this may help to flatten it. Anne

Here are my next two blocks, feels good to be back up to date.
Did not enjoy #59, as much as I tried and resewed three times I could not get the centre to line up. Oh well the quilt police can nab me :roll:
