I already had a line of masking tape on my footplate, which hasn't really helped. <br />I've just finished one of my SS blocks and even being careful it is 1/8" smaller than it should be .... now I'm off to build a wall!<br />Thank you Kate!<br />Barbara xxFlashinScissorshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06408946289711452871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2893619710941204763.post-14082737517032928062016-09-15T13:38:36.021+01:002016-09-15T13:38:36.021+01:00Very nice block!

It's a fair question, as a group there was no communication between us during the process, we just got on with it and kept our fingers crossed that no-one else was designing a similar block, or had made a block like it in the past. There are thousand of quilt blocks out there, you just have to search and try your best. I also checked with a couple of other quilters who have been quilting a long time if they had seen it either as it could have been in a book. In the end you just have to go for it.<br />Smiles<br />KateKate @ Smiles From Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17525561534884021883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2893619710941204763.post-10358791339928384772016-09-13T18:02:18.941+01:002016-09-13T18:02:18.941+01:00I'm amazed at how different the blocks are! ...I'm amazed at how different the blocks are!
