When I printed the patterns from home, only one page printed correctly. Then I printed from work and they all printed correctly. Weird! Hope to be working on this soon, after I get my blocks done for the Row Robin I'm in. I love this site, it has really enhanced my life and given me so much motivation to actually do what I love!

All seems to be going well with my Farmhouse. I am using some of the fancy stitches on my sewing machine to make "shingles." Don't overlook the decorative stitches in your machine to create embellishments.

I am having so much fun with this block.

I can't wait to see that! I got a new to me machine with lots of decorative stitches and have no idea where to use them.

This isn't the best photo, but it may give some idea of what can be done with decorative stitches.

Way cute! I love the idea of personalizing each house block!
I've almost got my fabric together and hope to get started soon!
