How can I miss you so much already when I really just met you a week and a half ago?!?! <br /><br />You may not be a mathlete (love that term!!!) but you sew a mean curved seam!!! Your pips quilt is amazing! I love the placement of the little people.

When you said 9x9, I thought you meant 9" by 9"....one block. Haha! I just love this quilt, and I can totally relate on the border problem. Maybe you can piece them into the back for some nice stripes in the back.<br /><br />I looked at what I have in my stash...I have a jelly roll of the pips AND two charm square packs. I might have to copy you on this one, because I like it so much.

Most of us can do the math we need to do to get the quilt done, but can't explain it to anyone else!
