Is there some place a person can go to get examples of some of these blocks and how to do them?
I have a section in the Virtual Section that has most of my "Blocks" directions and then there are a couple more I think that I haven't added here yet and you can find them on my free website. Bits n Pieces Workshop
The link is below in my list of links.
I also contribute to Admin's newsletter from time to time so if you haven't signed up for that you might think about it.
If you need any help just let me know! I will be more than happy to walk you through anything you might need.
My shortcuts are unique and they are easy to do. I hope you will try them and find they are fun to do.
This is where you will find the block directions

Then you can use the "Blocks" - for example the Boston Blocks or the Star Point Blocks to make a quilt block.
You will find some quilt blocks on my website and also in the Sampler Quilt I have been posting my original quilt blocks that are made up of my shortcut "Blocks"
You can see the link for the Sampler Quilt Along below.
You will need my templates so if you would like them send me a PM with your postal address and I will be happy to send them. We are getting caught up on the back log of requests as I am down to 45 left to process but will need to reorder more supplies so it will be about a week or week and a half before I can get more in the mail to everyone.
Here are my links for the info I have available:

I don't put any copyrights on my designs as I am frustrated when I find one I really like and can't use it for making things to sell. So I wouldn't do that to others. You are welcome to use my free info anyway you like.
Hope you have fun!

Rhonda, you are a darling person. I was so happy to get your free templates, and I have been using them. But something must have happened to them in the maiing, because all the graph part was buckled, like it was in ripples. I took a sharpie and was able to remark some of them, not the wedge shape though, it was a disaster. You have no idea how wonderful I have found your tutorials, all get put in a notebook so I can find them fast and have them close-by when ready to user. I think what you are doing to help others is wonderful. Carol

thanks for letting me know. I don't want anyone to not be able to use the templates right.

You don't need to do that. The template that rippled was the long narrow one, and I was able to work it out to mark with the sharpie. same with the Dresden. I just played with it until I had what I think is an accurate copy. I plan to purchse the e-book, one of these days, so if I didn't do a good job, I'll copy from the book template. My envelope got left out in the hot sun( car window) maybe that is what caused it. It was just those two.
