klue, thanks for the patterns. I had to enlarge them by 6% (106%) so the measurements were correct just like the ones for the Christmas blocks and I darkened by 2 so these old eyes could see better. These two patterns will be much easier for me. I am not ready for applique yet, but maybe someday when I grow up!!!
By the way, I bought another tablet of Transfer Paper at Walmart, tore the amount of sheets out one by one, and have them all printed out, two patterns to a page, easy to see through, tears away easily, and the tablet only cost around $2.50 for 40 pages if anyone is interested. I use the very pointy end of my bamboo stipple to get under the paper and let her 'rip' so to speak. Really easy to tear away.
Now to find the fabric. Thanks again. D
