Pumela, finished a block, turned out better than I'd hoped.Will be posting it off to you tomorrow. Should take about a week to 10 days to get to you.

I have that problem all the time. Often it comes out 12", not 12 1/2 like it says. Anyone have any suggestions. Is my sewing machine's 1/4 in wrong.

You should check how much your 1/4" foot is measuring. My 1/4" foot is way off and I have to change the needle position 1.5mm to the right for it to be a scant 1/4"

Oh, and press well.

If you are pp'ing you are suppose to add your 1/4 in seam allowance as your trimming it.

I got my orange block from JRSAY today! Woohoo! (Actually, I may have gotten it a few days ago but I've been bad at checking the mail. Box was stuffed!) Thanks hun, love the lovebirds.

Here're pix of what she made me and what I sent her way, too.
