If they all measure 10" without 1/4 seams then you are good to go that direction. Then I measured down one window piece, down the roof piece and down sky (6) piece on template C to make sure it all measured 10".

    In one word, precision - nice sharp points, accuracy with tiny pieces. It is a technique that takes some practice, but is worth all the effort!

    I decided to learn doing the block of the month with you guys. I am new to the site so I am a little behind. But went to town and bought some material to do the church and the farmhouse. I finished the church a few minutes ago an thought I would share it. It was fun. And it didn't take too long. I enjoyed it. The farm house looks more complicated. lol I will try.
