Confession...

 I hate trimming blocks.  It's my least favorite quilting activity.

But I do find the pile of tiny shards of blocks rather captivating!

And I love the progress I'm making on my polka dot quilt.

    I love your polka dot quilt. What a great idea. I don't mind truing up my block, I hate hand sewing on binding; so I don't.

    I'm with you on the trimming - I find it very tedious!

    It's not my fave either but it defintrly beats sandwiching a quilt larger than say 50x70.

    I've been trying to figure out what to do with my blocks, what a great idea.
    I agree, trimming is time consuming but having them perfect afterwards is worth it!
