    Kif
    Definitely leave the paper on the back it makes it easier!

    I must confess that I have nine individual blocks done already!! When I got started, I just couldn't stop myself, but I will be out of town all of next week so I won't be able to sew any more for now. This block pattern is so addicting!! Thank you Kristen0112 for taking on this project for all of us to share.

    LOL. You are welcome! It is hard to resist starting early on them and they are so much fun. I am sure everyone would love to see what you've done so far if you want to post pictures.

    I'm in for this. I pp'ed DDWR and have foundations copied for this that I've never used. This one looks like a real challenge. No pictures from me most likely. I haven't got a camera anymore. (long story)

    I loved seeing all the example quilts.

    Hmmm I think I should join this. Now is it paper pieced or more template pieced?

    I printed Ula Lenz's templates out before but my computer/printer prints it just a smidge, 1/16 in., too small. I am not sure how I can remedy that. Any ideas?

    already started......I wish....
    I have been knee deep in making jam and applesauce.
    Now I am getting ready to leave town. DH is out putting the ol' T in the trailer.

    I will get this organized when I get back. DH is having surgery on his wrist, canning is done. I will fix my machine and get going.

    Welcome!
    I had the same problem. I was able to just 'pretend' the rest was there when I was doing a test block. But I will probably get legal sized paper to print all the patterns - some print fine other are a little outside the printing page.

    Thanks for the welcome and the tip. I think I will wait for my computer swavy eldest son to help me when he stops in.
