Elle, I skipped printing the colored completed block to save on ink expenses this week and wound up having to re-do blocks because of it.
I can still skip printing them as long as I double check the layout before putting the rows together. I just have to make sure I actually do it because apparently it's backwards in my head. LOL

Which reminds me...if anyone is working ahead, and KLue has not posted the week's tips yet...(she's in a busy season, so I'm trying hard not to bug too much, although that remains to be seen!) - the "that quilt" website has tips on the blocks, so you can go to them for hints, whether it needs mirroring, etc. It's a nice 2nd resource...

i'm making RS2 in the triangle swap and it doesn't need to be mirrored.
like anything on the internet - use it as a tool but don't believe every word you read.
if you think its wrong, confirm the information for yourself.

its not clear where that quilt made the mistake or if it just plays out well no matter what - this is the problem with mistakes.
did she take accurate notes, did she think she clicked mirror but it didn't take and she actually printed it out standard, did she use a template in the computer in make her notes and forget to erase the "mirror" part in the template, or does this one triangle come out correctly either way.
it could be that i clicked mirror and didn't take accurate notes.
just too many unknowns and i'm so used to double checking some one elses work and having my own worked doubled checked (this is the life of a scientist) that i always analyze everything and then go to work.
