Holice, thats a smart idea. Your tip is one I will keep in mind for the future. But in this case, that won't help. There are several blocks. The cutting is organized by color of fabric. The first one on the list is black. Each cut tells you what block it is for. We are to precut our fabric and organize it by block and bring it to class ready to go. Most of the blocks are foundation piecing. This is a "New York Beauty Diversified" class. Thanks. Teacher has not replied yet, but I just emailed her last night.
