Sulsbug and Bizzielizzie, thank you for your encouraging thoughts.....DH is some better and as I predicted he's going out to golf today...hope he does not regret it.... On my way out of town to stay with grandkids until Friday..Son and wife taking trip, which is well deserved.... I will be back working on the Farmhouse and Star BOM soon. It's amazing how everyone builds their house.

i would suggest reading as much of the postings as you can. unless you are like me, and just go for it. wrong side of fabric to wrong side of pattern, and don't forget the 1/4 inch seam between each piece. don't forget to count your order of piecing. l, 2, 3, 4,...... 1/4 inch 'very careful seam'. double check everything before you cut. i ended up cutting off my good block a couple times. and,,,,,,, i do like the careful, exactness of true paper piecing. don't be chicken. nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Glad to know March is a break from PP... :thumbup:

I never made a yo-yo but I do love your tree, do you mind it I steal it for my blocks also?
I haven't done the farmhouse yet, call me chicken.
I'll need to go back and embellish my church block with one, and do it for all the blocks to come.
