No Weezie I do have the seam allowances showing on the templtes that do not measure up. I have downloaded and printed out the templates for block 3 from the FWS site and again there seems to be a discrepancy. Template 5 is bigger. whereas template 5 on the cd fits the block to make a 6.5 inch when all would be sewn together. I have made 6 and 9 bigger and now the block should look right.

I just added a .pdf version of Stefanib's chart showing the total number of times each template is used and the blocks in which they are used.
It's attached to the announcement topic.

Thanks again, Stefanib! :thumbup:

I hope you have it worked out, I'm afraid I don't know how to help you otherwise.
Patrice, do you want to add your post to the main discussion page (sorry if I missed it) as it might get missed here, being weve moved onto blocks 3&4. I know a lot of participants will appreciate the chart.
Thanks again Stephani

I bounce back and forth between the two sites and Margaret posted her photos. Don't ask me how she does it but her blocks came out 7 inches.
