    I finally got back to this quilt. Now I'm stuck on the corners. I'm not sure how you put them together. Is there anyone that is still able to help with this project?

    I have made 3 of these and want to make another and have lost my printed out patter.

  4. Diane Voudouris

    Due the cut measurements already in seam allowance? This is where I always mess up on my projects. Do I or do I not add 1/4" to cutting? Thank you, Diane V.
