I'm with you - I don't know what my problem is, but I hate those pinked edges and always trim them off if I can so I can get more straight seems!Kelly@ Charming Chatterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15277711683390210530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1860005980116330908.post-59466659245057039192011-01-25T11:20:10.142-05:002011-01-25T11:20:10.142-05:00Your Mon Ami quilt blocks are adorable!!

You get a finished project in no time.<br />I don't really like the pinked edges, and trim them off when I can. Sometimes you just can't do that though. Then I try to ignore them!Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09440749267288259866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1860005980116330908.post-14246185598483781272011-01-24T23:01:24.311-05:002011-01-24T23:01:24.311-05:00I've never made anything from a charm pack.

Anyway, I normally leave them. I can see how they would annoy you though. I love you Mon Ami....love seeing all of the colorways your girls put out there with your project of the month. I have to say, I think I like yours best this month!

I don't cut off the pinked edges at first, but if they're excess, they do get cut off before I'd chose to cut anything else. But I've found sometimes that amount of fabric is necessary for the correct measurement.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08205961618402944320noreply@blogger.com
