That's funny, my Downy Quilt also has given me the hardest time! Hmm, makes me wonder.

Oh yes! And the biggest lesson I learned was to put down the rotary cutter when you are overtired! Now I have lots of ripping to do...someday when I'm in the mood for that.

I cut my fabric the wrong size about 2 wks. ago and just can't get back into it. :thumbdown:

Hey SwanSong, where are you when I need you?

Don't be discouraged--we all have days like that unless we are perfect which I can tell you I am not for sure. Sometimes I just give it up for another time.

I have them too. Sometimes I know I just have to walk away and do something else for a while. It always gets better though.

Unless you cut the charm packs yourself then don't trust them. Hardly ever are they square. Then your block will never line up.
Ask me how I know?? :-(
