That's why I gave up on this BOM... too frustrating trying to print everything to the right scale. FRUSTRATING!

I can understand Frustrating been there. What is really awesome is using the support of all of the talent on the quilting board to overcome your frustration. Im so happy I didnt give up on PP. It took me a bit..but now its my favorite form of quilt piecing. I encourage you to hang in there. Its so worth it. Will open up so many avenues of quilt design for you. Hugs on your frustration..eat a piece of chocolate and dont give up :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

I love the car and the dog. It just makes the block come to life.

Jen and Dak,

That sheep is cute. And the car and dog too. How do you put those extras on. Do you go to a site and get shapes for appliques, make them and sew them on or are those shapes in the fabrics that you have and you cut them and applique them on. I am a relatively new quilter. But I still want to try this BOM. Even if mine are not perfect.
Jean

I didn't have my machine during Feb., but I finally got it back from the repairman---waaaaaahooooo!! The Feb. Farmhouse Block is kicking my tush. Here is my Barn though -- it isn't perfect, but I like it.
