This is why I always make a practice block before I cut into my good fabrics. Years ago I cut out all I needed for a top and the pattern had a bad mistake and I had to rush to the store and was lucky to find my fabric still in stock. That taught me never trust a pattern until I do a practice block.

The normal everyday type--you never put on any "airs." Thanks.

I have one copy of the magazine. I have ony quickly paged thru it so I can't say anything about errors. A lot of patterns have errors when they are printed. I try to remember to check for them before I start a quilt. I went to a trunk show with Jenny a few weeks ago. She was awesome. So nice and personable. SHe signed autographs and answered all questions. SHe even posed for everyones pictures. I wonder if she even had time for a break before her next show.

Our quilt guild made a quilt using a pattern from a magazine...one of the three or four part kind. We got the blocks made and some were too small. When we looked at the individual block information the unfinished blocks would not have come close to the finished block size. We should have tested each block but we didn't. Just made new blocks for the ones that were too small. These were from one of the well advertised magazines NOT from MSQC.
