This is such a cool design! Heather and Daisy Aschehoug [one of our previous Summer Sampler designers] have a new book coming out soon that is all about mixing curves and stripes!I made a fatal error on this block: I didn't check the 1" square on the template to make sure I had printed the templates correctly. I have never had a problem before, so didn't think I would this time. WRONG! Someone (probably me) had scaled a coloring page to print for my youngest, and I didn't realize it until about this step. I thought perhaps I would remake the block, but instead, just decided to add two borders and be done with it.

PSA: check your 1'' test block! Don't forget to check the IG hashtag #summersampler2019
