    I feel like I came home today. I have not been on the forum for over 2 years, nothing wrong with here just life. Decided to make the 5 minute block from Suzanne's YouTube video, since I had so much success with her 10 min. block. Cut all my rectangles 8.5 X 5.5 based on my best guess of size. Well that was a failure. I spent all afternoon trying to figure out what went wrong then a light went on and I remembered the dear old forum. Success at last, cut the blocks to 8.5 X 4.5 and it worked the first time and every time. Thanks to all you girls for your help. I am off and sewing the blocks with a smile on my face. Missed this place.

    There are some neat looking patterns created with her techniques. Her 10 minute blocks and the flying geese blocks are both based on ideas that were already in the quilt community. I wonder how she can claim them as her own?
