Sarahjane -

Your quilt is beautiful!
Your problem begins between your 7th and 8th rows down from the left, your seams don't match after the third strip patch/square. Try ripping your seam back to that point and make sure your seams match like Quilterbee described by "Pin, tug, ease all those points to make it fit".

I know it's not fun to rip and re-stitch, but it will be worth it in the end. Go for it! You can do it.

This what i did i rip the row out and to see what blocks was to big. Well it was two blocks that was a hair to much. Amie that is the second quilt top i made yes u do get two quilts out of them noodles and the first top did same thing and i had to make the second one just to see if it would do same thing and yes it did. But the white blocks are to small too so i have to make them biger or cut the blocks to the size of the whites. Thank you all for your help Sarah

Hi Sarah, the white blocks should be 6.5" and the 9-patches should be 6.5". The sides should be 9.34" cut once on the diagnal. THe corners should be 5.25" cut twice, but maybe they should be cut larger, like 6" to be safe.
Guess what??? When I pieced my Mom's, I used the first one I made as a template. Mine, the first one is only 6" squares! So, Mom's is a biggers quilt! Duhhh, I never even realized that all the blocks were 6" and not 6.5" until I started Mom's. But, everything went together. I did not have my design wall in Paducah so Mom's quilt was a real booger to piece. I had to use the bed! I took my Noodle quilt and just laid Mom's blocks on it and sewed it that way. Amie :o)

I started this pattern and instead of solid blocks I put in winnie the pooh blocks. My DIL is finishing it up, we decided to not put it on point, I'll post a picture when it is finished. I just love that pattern!!!! Thanks Amie, for the pattern!
