    That's why I gave up on this BOM... too frustrating trying to print everything to the right scale. FRUSTRATING!

    I can understand Frustrating been there. What is really awesome is using the support of all of the talent on the quilting board to overcome your frustration. Im so happy I didnt give up on PP. It took me a bit..but now its my favorite form of quilt piecing. I encourage you to hang in there. Its so worth it. Will open up so many avenues of quilt design for you. Hugs on your frustration..eat a piece of chocolate and dont give up :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

    Jen and Dak,

    That sheep is cute. And the car and dog too. How do you put those extras on. Do you go to a site and get shapes for appliques, make them and sew them on or are those shapes in the fabrics that you have and you cut them and applique them on. I am a relatively new quilter. But I still want to try this BOM. Even if mine are not perfect.
    Jean

    I didn't have my machine during Feb., but I finally got it back from the repairman---waaaaaahooooo!! The Feb. Farmhouse Block is kicking my tush. Here is my Barn though -- it isn't perfect, but I like it.
