Turned out beautifully. Always nice to figure out a way that works better for you.

sometimes you have to change patterns. I have 10 in square layer cake coming from MSQC and I might have to change the size of the squares to get to the size of the 10 in squares that are coming not included in the kit I got from my friend.

Technical writing is a talent. I also believe that the pattern maker may not have the experience to know more efficient methods to get to the end result. Love this quilt, btw. Looks like a plaid! Gorgeous!

Beautify quilt. I love strip quilting and am about to do something similar. I change direction more and more as I become more adept with my quilting. Isn't it just so much fun!!??!
