    The only bad thing about using squares and then trimming them, is now you have bias edges. Be very careful with those edges as they will stretch. You might need to spray starch them to control the stretch. This is the voice of experience talking.
    Yes, I did not STARCH and the bias edge caused major stress.

    It is gorgeous, and was well worth any trouble you had with it. I hope you are keeping it yourself. I love it.
