    If you want me to I can do up the block in EQ for you and e-mail it to you. PM if you would like me to do that, OK.

    Thank you! I am so bad at that part of quilting! I don't have a math brain! LOL

    I hope it will be gorgeous because I'm making it to auction at our church to benefit missions. I've already made a baby Saints quilt for the auction.

    Put it on graph paper and be sure to add that 1/4 when you are ready to cut the fabric. When I strted quilting many moons ago we used the plastic templates with the 1/4 added to it.

    For the block to finish at 10 inches, each of the quadrants has to be 5.5 inches unfinished. I'm thinking the geese and other pieces need to be 5.5 by 3.25 unfinished, but not positive. Someone else please verify my math.

    You could also print out the block pattern and reduce it to 10.5 inches and then paper piece it.

    I have to ask, even though it does not help the block. I have EQ6. If I create a block and save, if I send it out as an e-mail, doesn't the receiving party need to have EQ too?

    Success! Not perfect but neither am I! :-)
    I have points!

    5 1/2 X 3 rectangles 3 X 3 squares
    And it also helped when I figured out that I was sewing them on incorrectly! LOL

    Thanks everyone for the help!
