I "paint" starch around the edges of it when I use it to applique. I does shrink just a tiny little bit. This has never bothered me though. I guess if you are trying to be that exact though, it would.
I tried the "back basting" method last night though and I really like that! Here is a link to that: http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-16857-1.htm

Here is a chart I made in Microsoft Excel for the Trip Around the World color layout. I kept having a hard time getting in my mind which block should be what color. I had to draw it out on paper. Thought I would share in case there are other minds out there like mine. :-) Sorry I couldn't post this as a pdf. I don't have the software to convert it.

Hey, thanks for the spreadsheet/color layout. Can you tell me what you think the 12 colors ARE? I keep wishing someone had figured out the last 6, as the initial rows around the center are discernable.Its those last ones that get a bit..."it might be", probably, etc.

It is hard to figure out what colors she used after first five or six rows going out from the center. I think she started using whatever her had from that point out. They look to be mostly browns to me.

If you go on Brenda's website, there is a description of the colorway and what they are all around the quilt. I posted the link previously. If you good "dear jane" and "brenda", her site comes up. It's in there!!
