I can't tell you how many times I've done something similar! Including making the blocks too small which resulted in the need for more blocks, after I'd used up all of my focus fabric.... What is it carpenters and builders say, "Measure twice, cut once" - We should take that to heart for qulting! Your stack of blocks is really pretty; I'm sure your TWO quilts will turn out lovely. Looking forward to seeing them.The Colorful Fabriholichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16684095921708628970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-983525468027485560.post-68342465023314830132020-01-16T20:43:57.657-06:002020-01-16T20:43:57.657-06:00Well, your super duper "larger than expected&...Well, your super duper "larger than expected" stack of 12" blocks look so yummy.

Maybe you can just make it reversible. Thanks for sharing my temperature quilt. I can't believe how happy I am with it, and how much better it's getting with quilting. I'm taking my time to quilt it "right," and should have a finish in a couple weeks. That's a long time, I know, but I can't work on it ONLY. I have to bounce around among projects... too easily bored!FlourishingPalmshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13191140553844000267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-983525468027485560.post-90154473208830596942020-01-16T09:08:55.124-06:002020-01-16T09:08:55.124-06:00Yeah for LSU!.
