    I would swear you'd planned it that way! I love it and recognize some of those blocks from our days of BOM. I have a few left that I haven't used yet, wish I'd planned ahead and kept them all together for a top like that. BEAUTIFUL!!!

    Hugs,
    Sharon

    What a clever idea! That was the reason I gave up on quilting the first time, couldn't get so many of the blocks large enough (heard of fudging but that wasn't working), I wish now I hadn't had a little hissy fit & thrown everything away! Beautiful quilt.

    I would have had a hard time putting this one in a drawer! I'm glad you problem solved and was able to square it up. It is beautiful, colorful and very cheerful. Thanks for sharing!

    Your quilt is great. I need to make note of your plan. I seem to have undersize issues, too.
