Then you line them up at points or corners, pin and sew on the line just as if you were adding another piece to just one section of the pp pattern. clear as mud, huh? I know that I drew out many of the farmers wife blocks to pp so I could get them accurate. It worked so well, I ordered the EQ FW CD. Good luck, course you always do absolutely fantastic work and I am sure this will be no exception.
You and Amma both answered my questioned! Exactly the info I was looking for. Thank you! (and thank you Nursie for the sweet compliment)
