I noticed that the pattern promotes a template for cutting the blocks but the method you showed is as efficient, I think. I also thought about snowballing the corners but then you have the waste unless you turn those cutoffs into HST's for another project or as part of the border or even on the backing. Thanks to all at Jordan Fabric - I am in awe of the inventory that we can see!

Another fun quilt made easy by your great teaching method, Donna! A few weeks ago I stopped by your shop (I stayed at Buona Sera Inn so I was nearby), and the first thing I noticed was the street sounds; they're exactly the same as when you start your videos! It may seem silly, but it was very exciting just sitting in the parking lot outside your shop. One of your sweet ladies came outside to see what I needed, and when I mentioned I was on the last leg of my 3000 mile road trip and that Jordan Fabrics was a special stop, she apologized that the retail store wasn't yet open, but she brought me out a beautiful Jordan Fabrics mug. I enjoy my evening decaf every night with that mug! I'm looking forward to my next road trip and visiting your store again and maybe even meeting all of you in person. Many thanks to you, Matt, James, and all the staff for making every encounter with Jordan Fabrics a magical one!
