2. I cannot get my "set on point foundation block to come out even. I have tried it several times, cutting in stacks and single thicknesses of fabric. I have even drawn 1/4 in sewing lines and SCREAM. STOMP STOMP STOMP.... WHINE WHINE white wine white wine white wine. Its still off by enough to look really bad.

Thank you,

Oh no! I don't have any advice yet - I haven't gotten far enough along to try to get any glue out - and I won't start this week's foundation blocks until the weekend - but I did want to send you a big hug! How frustrating! I hate it when things seem harder than you think they should be. There are some who have done a few of the blocks already, so hopefully you'll get some good advice soon!
Thanks Laura.
