I'm all about this to. I am not a perfectionist. But these placemats I made yesterday- they literally were so wonky, this morning I layed them all together and smallest on top and just lined up the ruler with the measurements on the healing matte and cut them..some had an inch come off, and none of them had the inside squares matching! I can live with that as they are placemats and never "together" like a quilt would be, but to have measured them so intently and then have them be so wonkky...I can't figure what's wrong with this picture! I'll post a pic
