Definitely leave the paper on the back it makes it easier!

I must confess that I have nine individual blocks done already!! :D When I got started, I just couldn't stop myself, but I will be out of town all of next week so I won't be able to sew any more for now. This block pattern is so addicting!! Thank you Kristen0112 for taking on this project for all of us to share.
:D :D :D :D

LOL. You are welcome! It is hard to resist starting early on them and they are so much fun. I am sure everyone would love to see what you've done so far if you want to post pictures.

I'm in for this. I pp'ed DDWR and have foundations copied for this that I've never used. This one looks like a real challenge. No pictures from me most likely. I haven't got a camera anymore. (long story)

I loved seeing all the example quilts.

I just printed all the blocks out. I plan to make three of each. I am still working on my Batik Sampler and so far so good!!

Welcome Sucia! It will be a fun block to do.

Hmmm I think I should join this. Now is it paper pieced or more template pieced?

I printed Ula Lenz's templates out before but my computer/printer prints it just a smidge, 1/16 in., too small. I am not sure how I can remedy that. Any ideas?

already started......I wish....
I have been knee deep in making jam and applesauce.
Now I am getting ready to leave town. DH is out putting the ol' T in the trailer.

I will get this organized when I get back. DH is having surgery on his wrist, canning is done. I will fix my machine and get going.

Welcome!
I had the same problem. I was able to just 'pretend' the rest was there when I was doing a test block. But I will probably get legal sized paper to print all the patterns - some print fine other are a little outside the printing page.

Thanks for the welcome and the tip. I think I will wait for my computer swavy eldest son to help me when he stops in.
