Ok, I have a question about the Anne block. I noticed when I made mine that it did not look quite like the one in the book. The difference that I found was that in the top left quadrant of the block, the 'pinwheel' piece closest to the center line has the flat side up in the book and mine has the point up. So they are off in that manner all the way around. So I looked at everyone else's block and all but QNS have the same configuration. I think I know why it happens but it this an example of one that should be a reverse image? Not sure I would know how to fix it. And my outer rings had trouble lining up too. I am going to remake it tomorrow to see if I can do it better. I hope this isn't too confusing. I have trouble sometimes conveying what I mean, I can see it, I just can't say it. : /

Pam, you are right on with the mirrow image in Anne...I finally started on number two of Anne, tracing the templates on the right side of the fabric, then goofed by trying to sew it on the off side of the paper piecing pattern...on one quarter, so I put it aside. Pattern showed me to see it on the black side of the pp side not the under side as it changed the pattern again, reversing it. My one eye has a problem with that. Good luck with yours....and you were wise to look at everyone else's Anne block.

You're right, Pam. I never would have noticed it, but it may be more obvious in other blocks. I just attempted to print the block in reverse image or mirror image and discovered that I have neither option on my printer. I know I've done it before, but maybe only when using EQ6 or Dear Jane software, which is an EQ product.

And speaking of Anne, did you all see this thread a couple of days ago? It's Anne!
