Looks great either way

I like both ways. I do understand the reading the pattern part. I've been known to start reading and even read the line that says "read the whole pattern before starting." Of course I don't, that would take time away from quilting. I've learned that wasted time will be made up not ripping stuff out. Live and learn

hahah OCD & ADD ? well in that case I am right there with you !LOL I have had my share of that while quilting/sewing/crafting ! But like all quilters/sewers/crafters-we take the good with the bad and (hopefully) learn from our ummm mistakes as we call them and don't repeat em !LOL Love your solutions !

I liked the scrappy look better, but you have to do what you can live with. So glad you figured out a solution without having to rip or waste. Good job!

I love the gingham and the 30's prints in your quilt. You are going to have a beautiful quilt when it is done. Please post a picture of the finished quilt.
