    I'd go berserk doing one of those. You have done great. What size will it be?

    Yes it is, though I'm affraid its not my favorite!! It was my MIL's and I keep it more for show! She didnt take very good care of it so it isn't smooth anymore! I have 5 machines, 3 Kenmores so I dont use that one too much!

    do your seams match up doing it that way? I like the idea of not worrying about which piece is next to other.. great job, almost done!
