I will say that many of my blocks are not lined up even close, and yes that bothers me... a lot.. but it's only my second large quilt and I'm still getting the hang of making sure my seam allowances are spot on so.... whatever, lol. I can't wait to finish it. I'm hoping by this weekend, but not quite sure if that will work out. Thank you so much for this QAL :)ohiomomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07671681588068443952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37018101.post-18808182364027799392011-08-30T17:38:59.345-05:002011-08-30T17:38:59.345-05:00I tried this block with smaller strips and love th...I tried this block with smaller strips and love them, too.<br />http://luv2stitch.blogspot.com/2011/08/36-patch-blocks-reduced.htmlJeannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11479326539899743265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37018101.post-24792119688504812232011-08-28T10:45:01.396-05:002011-08-28T10:45:01.396-05:00It turned out just great, Amanda Jean!
