Both farmhouses are so darn cute and gosh you girls are quick. I think the problem I am having w/ this whole PP thing is I have to see it in progress, as I am just not getting it...see my sad face, as I really wanted to play along.

It is a little intimidating at first (and sometimes second). I always have to say to myself "wrong side of fabric to wrong side of pattern". And also if you fold on the lines before you sew, they will tear easier. And here is a few tutorials that might help if you see it being done:

http://www.google.com/search?q=youtu...=com.microsoft:en-us:IE-SearchBox&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=ie7&rlz=1I7GGIE_en ( lots to choose from)

I hope these will help you. After you get started on a piece, it gets a little more clear as you go. ;-)

Both of your blocks are really nice. I might get started on mine tomorrow but not sure because I have my granddaughter tonight & tomorrow. She wants me to make her pj bottoms. There was a tip on Fons & Porter for taking the paper off the blocks. They said to run a tracing wheel along the seam & it helps to perforate it better. Also from past experiences you might want to leave the paper on until you have sewn all of your blocks together. Helps to keep it from stretching & distortion. Have fun with the block!
