Thanks Izzy
If I have enough of the orange background I think I'll add sashing so they are not quite so close together (wish I'd cut the squares 18"....)

I did cut mine 18 and still didn't fit on point but I didn't use interfacing on the back. Still pondering how to sew them down.

Izzy,
I did use the non-woven fusible interfacing on the back (sewed it on with 1/8" seam, more or less) and then hand stitched it down. Got really quite fast sewing the interfacing down after a few!! Still, it was a pain to cut, clip, turn these. However, I can't think of a better way to have finished edges. Needle turn would be awful 9too many curves!)

I got 9 together with sashing (have 3 others finished but need more of the sashing fabric to add then to top--at least I found some on the web!! Windham Storybook VIII fabric......) Will post a pic later in week if you don't get to see it during the 'show.!
