Grrrr all the way to the end and...
Missed out by half a square.😢😢😢
Looks like reverse sewing and plan B
Little squares I will win 😆😆😆how is every one else going..
Big hugs to all
Diddles.
I haven't started sewing mine on yet - something to look forward to - not!!! I am having trouble getting the next border of 1.5" squares to fit!!! I have 3 sides on but am doing a lot of restitching of seams to get the 4th side on. I just knew my run of smooth sewing was going to come to an end!! Good luck with Plan B!!

goodluck Diddles.......was working on the light border yesterday as I have no idea what to do my peep and border here with.......
Looks great Diddles!!!!
Looks good...I think I'll do the corners first and then work the other pieces in and pin before sewing.

The pattern says that the squares don't meet exactly...I had the same thing with a gap so have left a small hardly notice gap and they look ok..
