    Be sure to check page 92 of the main discussion page for all the nominations for the names of the FAQ's page. Choose your favorite 3 and send them through a p.m. to Norbana. Put Name Choice or Name Vote in the subject heading. She will gather all into a file and after Sat put up a poll for the top 3 so you can vote.

    Hi

    I see you may have done the Basket block. Did you have any problems with sizing. I found block piece no 6 and 7 did not match block 5 piece so could not join them properly. Can you help please

    Are we getting cutting instructions for 3 and 4?

    Sorry I didn't look far enough. Found them.

    I have a problem with the basket block the pieces no 9 and 6 do not make a square to sew with the main block no 5. Not sure how to change this myself.

    Did you have problems with templates 6 and 9 for the basket block? I found them too small

    I have not done the basket block yet.
    I used the rotary instructions for 1 and 2 not the temp-plates so I am not sure what is happening here. I know Laurie had some corrections on her blog site for some of the blocks. And there were some temp plates others caught here and posted on the original thread. I made a note of them in the file I will check and see what I have.

    Shoot, apparently that was in the one document I deleted by accident. Maybe someone here will remember which ones the errors were found in. I know we nominated Eddie to check but I don't know if he accepted our not so I don't know if he has that information.
    Perhaps he or someone else will post. If not maybe try the rotary instructions.

    The basket block templates are accurate.

    Margaret, the finished length of templates #9 and #6 should be the same. The long side of # 6 is the same as #9- 3 1/2 " with the seam allowance.
