    Cool Update to my HELP!!! Why is this happening post. I think I got it!!!

    http://www.quiltingboard.com/main-f1...g-t196807.html

    So after 2 failed attempts at this piece of the block I think I have managed to get it right. The first time I sewed one of the sqs the wrong way. Then my blocks were completely distorted, so I posted a thread for some advice.

    Earthwalker gave me some great advice for preparing my fabric and Justabotcrazy told me to "
    make sure I am carefully stitching an accurate seam all the way to the end". I noticed that my angel guide I have doesn't seem to be too accurate to I will have to draw on the lines.

    Here is my completed piece using all the advice and it looks great, not perfect but great

    [ATTACH=CONFIG]353940[/ATTACH]Here is my 3rd times a charm piece.

    Slow and steady wins the race and I am sewing these little sqs to the white fabric and taking extra care to make sure my seam is spot on. I will not make this piece for a 4th time.
