    At the top of he page, click on home. Look in the Block of the Month(BOM) and Block of the Week (BOW) section. You can usually find it there, although sometimes I haven't found it there.

    What Nonnie said. BOM section is pretty spot on. That's where I look. On the rare occasion that fails, I use the search function. A bit of a PITA, I know, but so is life. Please participate. :0)

    yes, BOM is where I found it today, but havent seen it there before? and I thought it was to be found in the FW virtual section as well... have mostly been running SEARCH to find it at all.

    Im GLAD to have found this post! I guess I need to write on my calendar which week is for what numbers so I dont get behind again.

    I was curious as to if I was the only one having these difficulties
    thank you ladies :D

    If there's any chocolate involved, count me in.

    Honchey,
    Thank you for sharing your rotary cutting directions! It is ever so helpful. Wouldn't it be nice if there was a Farmer's Wife Sampler FOLDER??? Every week there are 3 additional listings: rotary cutting directions link, discussion link, photo link. If we had a FWS FOLDER, everything to do with that topic could be located in one place. I imagine the other quilt along would like that set up too! I don't know how administration keeps up with all this. They are so helpful!

    Anyway, thanks again for all you do. My quilt top is coming along nicely!

    To clarify: I am in no means suggesting that we go to one FWS file for everything. I like how it's broken into 3 categories. I just wish those 3 weekly categories along with everything else to do with FWS could be in one place.

    Forum/BOM/FWS/Week 1/(which would include separate files:rotaty cut directions, photos, discussion)

    Forum/BOM/FWS/Week 2/(which would list the same 3 separate files)

    Thanks!

    That idea along those lines has crossed my mind! Probably because the week's topics aren't necessarily listed consecutively so finding the appropriate thread takes time. Maybe I'm just lazy! :lol:

    I just finished Buckwheat. What a pain. Ended up doing it twice to get it right. Thank goodness #14 was much easier. Obviously, I'm way behind but still love looking at all the pictures of what everyone else is doing. Hopefully, I'll have time to work on the next set of blocks this weekend!!!!

    PiecesinMn, I've had trouble with some (actually a lot) of the blocks. I've redone so many of them I'll have enough for 5 quilts when I'm done. Just kidding about 5 but I sure do have a ton of "uglies"! Keep plugging away-I've had so much fun and learned so much with each week.
