Which means I'm working on it again. I froze briefly when needed more corners - I couldn't remember how I pinned the pattern to cut the piece. Even cutting a few more border pieces caused consternation as I recalled how to measure it. How could I get that out of practice in just a few weeks? Setting up the ironing board caused another moment of recalling what I needed and where they were.
The NYBs are three different sizes. Several of them were grouped together, which requires no further modification. But there's a handful that are assembled with larger pieces. Those require another arc added so the outer edge of the circle is smooth.
I'm looking at this photograph and seeing a few things that could be moved around color-wise. The goal is to have the adjustments and a flimsy complete by the end of the week. Oh, that would be lovely!
