    Default 2014--50 Fabulous Paper-Pieced Stars BOW

    ************

    The first week in January we will be starting a block of the week using Carol Doak’s book “50 Fabulous Paper-Pieced Stars”. Our goal is one block per week. We will start with Alabama and end in December with Wyoming.

    If you have this book, please join us. If you’ve already started, but got side-tracked, please jump in where you are and share your blocks.

    This is a place to ask questions, share tips to make the blocks easier, and share pictures of your completed blocks and quilts. There will be no patterns or tutorials given and there is no sign-up required. Participants must purchase their own copy of the book. Participants are not permitted to share copies of the book's contents.

    Do as few or as many as you like.

    Count me in Carriem, have already made the first block. Will be making my blocks 10 inches, just for something different. Also this will give me more options when putting it together.

    Mirabelle, this one has been on my list for quite a while now. So I hope I don't fall off the wagon
    Surgery will be coming Tuesday, have to be there 9.30 am my time. Let's hope all goes well and I hope to be home on Friday!

    Carrie, for the Foundation Factory 50 Stars, do you know if that's based on Foundation Factory or can you use it as stand alone?
