Then I chose where I wanted to save the file on my computer and added the extension ".sxw" after the title, which is what Open Office uses for text documents. You will need to use whatever extension YOUR text program uses. Then just click "Save". Then I can open the document in Open Office and read it.

Hope that this helps you!

I love log cabins and all the variations. My bucket list contains a slip that I'll make all the variations I can find.

Thank you for catching that, Pepita.

I made your file into a PDF so those who can't open your file have a chance to see it.

OK.....I'm confused as to why you would sew pieces together, then cut them apart???
