I know we use those kind of numbers all the time in quilts, but when I only count to four or five and then start over, it doesn't seem like as much. On your squares, I've had that exact problem and can recommend that when you lay your fabrics right sides together, try to match a square side with a not square side. Put a pin through the centers of both four patches. Sew the seam using the straight one to measure from and hold your breath. You'll be surprised how many come out right without that nasty unpicking. Be well. I love the idea of your quilt and am glad Grace is back.

Ugh. I ...E, that is going to be a beautiful quilt!<br /><br />Ugh. I almost never count the pieces in a quilt - I would never start! It all seems so daunting numerically speaking. :)Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01805403370463885686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8630979976490932348.post-70915822323902498982013-05-11T17:03:01.805-06:002013-05-11T17:03:01.805-06:00I'm of the camp that would rather not know all...I'm of the camp that would rather not know all the numbers ahead of time, but just keep plugging away blissfully ignorant, or "forgetting" the figures. Something about putting a mathematical value on it seems intimidating, although I'm not sure why.<br /><br />I love those blues, Elizabeth. I'm glad you were able to find some that coordinated so you can complete this. Bummer about the cutting throwing off the measurements. Hope you can salvage it in the piecing.Paulettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06181665241824945247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8630979976490932348.post-72294371776867173802013-05-11T16:39:41.487-06:002013-05-11T16:39:41.487-06:00Wow!
