    I almost always use cornerstones - sometimes with the same fabric. I think that giving a seam to match to makes eerything come out more even.

    PaintmeJudy,
    Now I can see...it looks so huge on my Kindle Fire little screen that it didn't look like a block to me. The lower portion was not visible at all, until I did a scroll just now. Thanks for being patient with me.
    Yes, a good way to do cornerstones, I agree!

    I just did my first one, as I was a little intimidated by the work, but it wasn't that hard. This is just the top I finished yesterday for my youngest GD.

    Love it, so how are you quilting it? I am still wondering about how to do mine.

    This is absolutely brilliant. The sashing just becomes an element of each block. I love the look of corner stones but hate working with that long narrow strip with the squares in between. Thanks so much.
