Use the largest needle you have and set you stitches to really short. I have your basic Walmart special Brother machine. I set it on 1. It also works best if you pull the paper off
before you trim everything down to the correct size.
I'm ok ya'll, just pouting. We'll just keep moving along, if these blocks will work great! If not, I'll grumble through making more, lol. Thanks for all your nice comments. Something I learned when I first came here was how supportive everybody is. I've been running behind all day, Chemo day
slept the afternoon away, trying to play catch up since. Now off to the picture thread to see if we have new pics
