    Thanks everyone!

    I had some problems getting my block to measure 15" across the top so I had to do some adjusting and reverse sewing but now I've figured out that I like to make bigger than 1/4" seems and it has taught me a good lesson on fitting. I'll be more carefull next time. I have atleast 15 more of these to do, lol, I should be pretty good at these by the time I'm done with them.
