Why of course Norah. How do you think I did it? Sometimes those of us who live in the middle of techno-civilization forget that others don't have everything at their disposal. In reality, if I didn't have a printer at work, I would be lost also.

Remember the finished size of the 1/4 blocks is 6x6. The real size is 6 1/2 x 6 1/2. Since you are paper piecing you only have to draw out the finished size. Make it look right for you. Ask questions.


Go gettum.

All templates were redrawn by Patrice in a whole slew of sizes. They can be found by going through this thread...

thanks I'll giving it a try right about now.

I'm back already!! Mission accomplished. Like Wow! am I behind. That's cool though because I'll be in Blockhead Heaven once I get started. :lol:

I've been reading through these posts and I've decided the best part about you all is how you encourage each other in your work. It gives me a warm sense of community. I'm not quite to the point where jumping on the blocks in is feasible time wise, but do look forward to the day I can post them alongside you. I am watching in utter fascination though, so keep up the great work, it's appreciated! :D

Well, I was so proud of myself that I did this block and it turned out pretty darned well......I went to grab the camera and saw my BIG mistake, :evil: :D :D
So I guess while the grandkids are still napping I will rip and fix :D
