question about December trees

Posted by on December 7, 2010 in blocks | 3 comments

I cut out fabric last night to start two pairs of trees, and I think I cut them too small, because I started with 6.5 inch wide strips. I think when I sew the two tree seams I will use up about an inch, leaving me with only a 5.5 inch block width. So should I have started with a 7.5 inch width or larger to end up with a 6.5 inch block?

  1. my bad. I failed to re-read the link to the basic directions, which state to start with an 8-inch strip. Question answered.

  2. I'm sorry I didn't have better directions put together for you, Linda.

  3. I've been hanging out too much with my darling husband , who never reads directions; must have rubbed off.
