I am going to research different helpful hints and techniques for doing our blocks. My goal is to start with the basics. I found this post on Pinterest about how to square up your blocks. Here is the link, (you may need to cut and paste it into your browser):

I know when I started quilting, I never understood the benefit of squaring your blocks. I thought they would all just magically fit together. Isn't that how it works? My goal for this quilt along is to use all the help I can get to make the most perfect squares I can. Instead of hurrying through making a quilt, I want to learn and do things right. I am excited to be doing a few blocks a week so that we can "enjoy the journey." No pressure to get the block done by a certain time. We can sit back and do a block every few days.
