    Added this to my favorites. I think my favorites are about to go into overload.

    I've done DP blocks this way for years BUT I sew from the top down for an inch and then the bottom up for an inch...block always comes out square. It REALLY is an easy way to do curves. Just need to sew slowly and move your fabric.
