    patti this information is great for beginners. i have two 1/4" sewing feet and i also keep a seam gauge near when i am sewing to double check my seams.

    even in this tute i see that there is some "less than perfect" point matching. i think getting seams to match perfectly every time is like magic, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. but overall it shouldn't take away from the beauty and time it takes to create a most lovable quilt that someone will appreciate. thanks for posting the information.

    linda what are you wanting to trade? it wasn't clear to me. i have some fabric scraps left of the seuss fabric i could trade. i bought only 1/8 yds to complete the block so i have a little left that i can trade or i could recreate a similar seuss block. let me know what you are looking for.

    I completely agree with you, I think perfect is difficult if not impossible to achieve. I strive for good and work toward better. I think the effort makes all the difference.
