Bless you, QuiltnNan! I love this. Thank you for doing that. I'm sending it on to my daughter so she can see also.

I plan on making my blocks larger so it ends up queen sized. Do I need the CD or can I just blow everything up the same % on a copy machine. DOes anyone know if this will work. I assume it will be oK for the blocks but what about the triangles.

For those struggling with the software: I just wanted to share that I found a used copy of the DJ book; no software was included. But I'm doing fine with just the book plus the blog, "thatquilt.blogspot.com". I trace the pattern from the book onto freezer paper, then cut out the freezer paper, iron onto the fabric and cut, adding a 1/4" seam allowance. Then I follow the instructions from the blog for sewing them together.

OK Fraew, you are challenging me now LOL. In the software, there is a Yankee Doodle baby Jane that was given to Brenda. However, on the quilts I've done here previously, it was fairly easy to change just the sashing and outside triangles... so here is the red/white/blue [which I kinda like]

my thanks for the hint about moving template pieces around before printing. Saves lots of paper.
