:thumbup: Hi froggy. LindaMRB was kind enough to post a link near the bottom of the 3rd page. Good luck with it. As you have read we were not able to print out the sash and border directions but I am sure that the people on the board can figure it out or at least wing it. Good Luck

I would also note that there are a couple errors at least: wrong measurements and number of pieces needed. They also said rectangle where they clearly meant square...
Not a huge deal unless you don't have enough fabric.
I have done so much juggling to make my fabric work (and made so many mistakes myself) that I'm not sure I can tell you what the errors are and I hesitate...If you look at the picture and do one square at a time, you'll probably figure it out.

LindaMRB thanks, do you think if I add 1/2 yard to each of the fabrics that would be enough? Many thanks for the post. BrendaK

I bought 2 extra fat quarters along the way for one fabric and made the best of it. I have enough to redo the corners in something else.
I did not start out with what they suggested so I was already in trouble.
I think, in my inexperienced opinion, that half a yard extra for each is too much.

She who dies with the most fabric wins! as they say...

I have now done as much as I can do... until I make a decision about the fabric I ran out of: the corner pieces, missing on squares 10 and 12. (I have the missing strips.)
I need to think about redoing ALL of those corners and which fabric to use.
Square #12 is not square and I'm going to have trouble with the sashing and borders. That darker area is because it's wet from the starching...

Thanks to all the nice comments I've received! They've kept me going to finish in record time.
