I was worried that my curves were not matching perfectly. I reworked the ends… who will know unless I say something,,!

Monique, I love everything about your piece. Your fabrics are beautiful, and very dramatic. You have done a great job with fabric and design placement.

Not sure I understand the question. If this is a double fan, it should measure 4.5" x 8,5" with seam allowances. If it does, you're fine. Once the rectangles are sewn to each other they will be "mostly" on grain and that's good enough for most of us.

I’m adding another question and want to know if others ran into this… I cut out my outside pieces and was afraid I was a little off grain. As you can see one side when I pressed..I had some extra ,but this made the outside piece lie flat. I have sewed another one..but now I’m wondering if I should cut a rectangle and attach to that for better accuracy?

Monique, Love, love, love your Africa log cabins. It looks fabulous with the center block. I have lots of BOMs that barely
resemble the patterns. All you need to do is find something that you for the next set of borders. HelenW

Monique G,
I like the African/primitive/ethnic direction - so dramatic.

Wait until the background is sewn on. The unit will be 4.5” x 8.5” unfinished. It will be 4” x 8” when sewn into the quilt.

Love the way your quilt is evolving! Yes, it certainly does have a mind of it own…but it’s a great one!

I tried encircling the centre with the proposed block but it didn't look right. . . .I think I'll save it for the outer border. This block seem to give the quilt a more African look. I believe this block is the one used for the embroidery block, so I'm going to have to give this a lot of thought on what to do next. This baby certainly has a mind of its own.

Barbara… getting ready to trim the bottom of this block. Am I correct it is 4.25” tall. I don’t want to make a mistake and have to ‘ fix it’. Or.. should I wait and trim after the outside piece is attached. Thanks
in reviewing my picture I should have written 41/4 not 41/2
