Thank heavens. I wish I could fin some replacements, because I so want a house quilt. I'm looking fast & furious.
Sure is, but don't know of any. Are there any takers out there? I will supply the fabrics.

These patterns should be done as PDFs, maybe there wouldn't be so many problems with them.

I use CutePDF to convert my own patterns to PDF. It is a free program that looks to your PC like a printer and you just print to that printer. It then comes up with a box to save the file as... Give it a name, and it creates a PDF out of it.

I'M DOING THE HAPPY DANCE!!!

After a month of headache and disappointment, I can now print out the blocks to the right size. Do you know why..........
Someone, can't remember who said try printing it out with IE. I don't use IE (hate the program--not sure why), I use Firefox (lots of nifty add-ons). It never occurred to me to use IE. Whoever made the suggestion, THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!

I am in the same shoes here! My computer doesn't even like IE, and I love Firefox. Always had problems with the Cache templates...I knew there was a reason I kept the old laptop with IE. Glad it is working for you too :thumbup: :thumbup:

Now.........let my peanut brain start to figure this one out!! Let's see........because my "village" will be in the winter season my farmhouse will have snow on the roof and ground. The tree will be bare except for a bright red cardinal sitting among its branches! Perhaps I'll have to include a snowman in the yard. Oh, oh, oh, I'll have to put up some Christmas decorations on the house!!!!! This is going to be another fun one!!!! Thanks so much letsquilt!!!!! It will be a nice addition to my "village" of Beaver Valley! :thumbup: ;)
Such a cute idea-now you have my wheels turns-thanks :} can't wait to see yours.

Think about doing the same house with applique.
I bet it would be easy and fun to try.

I'm not sure I will do this one, as the pieces are so tiny, I can't see to get them on correctly. I wasted so much on the last one, that I don't have any to waste this time.


But I will enjoy looking at the ones the others are going to be doing.

Skydiver70,
I certainly understand that you are passing on this block, but I hope you will pick up with us again, when March comes along. We will miss seeing your neat block!!
