    I am SO sorry ya'll are having so much trouble. Here is how to find it from the Home page of the site:

    Go to the Home Page
    http://thegoldenthimble.com/

    Go down that page almost to the bottom of the list and click on the "SPECIAL REQUESTED FREE QUILT BLOCKS"
    http://thegoldenthimble.com/specialrequests.html

    Here you will see all the free block patterns. They have some really cute ones by the way :) Anyway, you will see the little birdhouse block right in the middle. Just click on the Name "SPRING BIRDHOUSE"
    http://thegoldenthimble.com/springbirdhouse.pdf

    You will need to give it a minute to load and you also have to have the ability to load a PDF file. If you ONLY want to print the last page with the roof and birds then just change your print options from "PRINT ALL" to print page 8 only.

    I hope that helps. Have fun!! :D

    Was just wondering, is this birdhouse block of the month new? Is this the first block? Is it too late to join?

    Thanks.

    I would like to join also. What do I need to do to get started and which block do I do first? And we keep the blocks for ourselves, right?
    Thanks

Thats what I love about this board, the freedom of doing your own thing. Thanks so much for everyones hard work on the BOM.

    Qbee and all our other fine quilters. I did manage to get to the Spring Birdhouse on the Golden Thimble web site but please note: Site informs that best used on Internet Explorer and also you may have to download Adobe Reader. Well, I have an Apple so there is where the problem is BUT sister, has a PC so I'm off to visit her (and use her computer). Looking forward to attempting this applique project. Thank you.

    I just bought fabric to join this group, so I haven't started yet. I've got a lot of work to do to catch up. Now I have to figure out how to change those birds to the woodpeckers that nest in my yard!
