Double Slice my Way

My mother likes to take a nap after lunch. When last winter the house felt draughty and chilly I thought I could make her a lap quilt to snuggle up and feel warm and comfortable. Well my double slice turned out 4 1/2" and 5 1/2" in the first cut. Which meant I either throw the whole thing away in Frustration or continue boldly and end up with only slightly different rectangles. I went for the latter and my mum loves the quilt. Who can ask for more?
