Over the years, I have gotten in the habit of doing test blocks. It has saved me alot of heartache over this time. I only cut out enough for a couple of blocks. I do more than one to compare layouts.

Am I the only one that makes a test block prior to starting on the actual fabric? I have made so many mistakes that I find if I mess up the scrap block and have to fix the mistake I have saved myself some greif.

I like the idea of making a test block. It reminds me of crocheting or knitting a swatch when you start a pattern. Sometimes I have found that the fabric didn't behave the way I thought it would (in ironing or color) so I can try out another idea. Great reminder!
