They were trimmed in a wonky fashion, on purpose. My partner loves a bit of improv, but that doesn't come naturally to me as much as I would love it to. So this was my best attempt; there are still nice matching points in the centres, and each block fits together like proper quilt blocks, but it has the look of the carefree and easy going, so everyone's a winner!
I snapped a few pics as I went, and the Instagram likes are a real confidence boost…
The top is now complete, but here I will stall for a while, as I am currently wadding-free, so I need to rectify that. But, how the bugger am I going to quilt it!!???
