as I finish the last block, I am now ready for the outer edges, so I go back & re read the instructions, humm how many times have I read & re read these, apparently not enough lol! I look over at my rabbits, they look as though they knew lol,
the boys were no help at all 
once again here’s Lori’s tutorial

now here’s the kicker lol! the side strips are to be added before you sew the rows together, you can tell I didn’t do that lol!
I started with the seam ripper, bad idea! it was tearing my blocks & there was no more matching squares left sooooo I proceed to add the strips to the sides having to twist & turn so’s it wouldn’t pucker, it’s working but taking longer, this made me have to re think sizing it up making sure all the edges & corners come out even, whew! finally I got one block edged, I’m not sure if it’s right but I’m happy with it lol!
I am linking this post up with up WIP (work in progress ) @Freshly Pieced
