I do the draw a line down the center and sew 1/4" from the line on both sides kind of thing. I don't have an "official" design wall. I have an empty wall space that is a bit over 3 feet wide that I thumb tacked up a big piece of cotton batting. It has helped alot when I'm deciding block layouts.Robin (RsIslandCrafts)https://www.blogger.com/profile/06875986169322073281noreply@blogger.com
