    Default When searching for free quilt block directions

    I was searching for directions on a quilt block and could not find what I wanted. I knew there was an addy I used to go to all the time that had so many blocks listed and when I searched it was not coming up on the list. I could not remember the name of the site. Finally, I decided to look and found it listed on page 6 of the listed sites. Finally! It is Quilt Blocks Galore at Quilters Cache: http://www.quilterscache.com/QuiltBlocksGalore.html
    She lists by name and by size of blocks. I wanted to post this for those who are new to quilting so they have a good place to go to and look at all those blocks they can make in the future. That and MaryQuilts.com is another one. I hope this helps someone.
    Hugs, Marcia in TX.

    Jinny Beyer has a lot of free quilt block patterns too, some that the other sites don't have:
    https://www.jinnybeyer.com/quilting-...ard/browse.cfm

    With any of these sites, when printing templates or paper piecing patterns, always check that the gauge prints out to the right size, to save heartache later. Each page prints up with a little box or line that says it should measure 1" when printed. If it's too big or too small after your printer prints it, you have to adjust the scaling to get it to come out at 1". I have to print many of the Jinny Beyer patterns at 108% to get them to print at the right size. Your printer has settings for scaling. Set your scaling before you hit "print".
