The problem is in the ones that you download only. Just print them off from the cd instead and it will be perfect.

I never thought about it until now when I read the latest postings, but I've been printing all my templates from the CD. I had the other ones downloaded, but deleted them when I got the CD. So when I said the templates were accurate, I was thinking of the CD ones.

errr .... ummmm .... does anybody mind if i toss a question out for consideration?
if this is the topic for blocks 1 & 2, why are we already talking baskets, and other blocks from down the road?
i'm not trying to be contrary. it just occurs to me that if somebody needs advice about 1 & 2, they'll have to sift through conversations about other blocks in order to find it.
perhaps the "work ahead" conversations could move over to the general discussion until we get to the blocks concerned.
whatcha think?

Today I checked the templates 6 and 9 from Block 3 the basket and they measure 3 inches not 3.5 inches. I printed them from the templates on the cd that cmae with the book. Anyway I had advice and made them bigger and now just have to square the block up.
