@Allison thank you Allison Luckily I left cutting the fabric so I will cut it at 14 1/2" and I do have the XXL L-unit printed off.

Hi Allison I'm using the instructions from Love Quilting magazine. I assume this correction is for the background fabric? The magazine instructions say to cut a 14" x WOF strip - should this now be 14 1/2" strip? It also says to cut this into 3 x large DP curve units. Is this correct that we use the curve template to cut the fabric and the resulting arc shape is what we use to make the DP units with the DP curve from the bird body fabric. Or should we be using the arc template to cut the pieces? Sorry if it's me just being a bit dim! tia Jane

Gone for an aqua/pale turquoise plain - abandoned the white!

I picked fabrics from my stash for the fat quarters , all in the kind of peacock range as it may well end up with my sister who loves peacocks. The original background was going to be white but, typically, I changed my mind over the weekend and had to go and buy more fabric! I post on Instagram as @backtothequilting
