    I absolutely love this quilt and would like to make it. I downloaded the pattern and obviously the pieces must be precise. Since you have made this quilt, may I ask whether or not you did "scant" 1/4" seams? Any other pointers or advice regarding this quilt would be very helpful. It would be my first "difficult" (to me) quilt. Thank you for your help.

    I have read the pattern instructions several times and could not find information regarding the 1/4" seams. I am going to make a test block "A" using a true 1/4" seam.

    On my lable it states "Upon passing, Quilt to be returned to maker"

    The instructions for this quilt are pretty good. I stayed pretty true to the 1/4" seam allowance. Organization is the key to making the process easier. Bag and identify all your cuts.
