wow! such pretty blocks!

I am sewing twice on each corner so I get the extra square out of that left over piece. I have been putting together some interesting doll quilts.
I would not mind the extra fabric left on mine but it does make for a lot of work if some of us are just throwing it away.

Forgive me for being dense but what is 1/4" them?

Susiequilt, I was thinking the same thing, wonder what it means, '1/4" them'?

"1/4" them? HHMMM...a new term! What does it mean?

Count me in on this! I will start with 12 blocks, but can make more.

Some of us are saving the HST leftover corner blocks from the blocks we are making to use in the borders of our siggie quilts.

I needed to slice the backsides down to 1/4" seam. You know, slice off the rest of the material. :-D

I decided last night I was going to sew them together and make HST blocks with them. Hopefully, I'll find a use for them.
Maybe, a border if there's enough of them.

Here are my siggy blocks (80).I need to make more since more have signed up. I am enjoying this swap. I have been keeping my trim offs for a while and have used some to make a pad for my machine to sit on so i can slide it around instead of picking it up every time I need to move it.
