No idea. I broke mine before I could look at the disc. :0D

QB wouldn't let me post links. You can find the yahoo group by searching farmerswifesampler and Laurie's blog by searching "farmers wife quilt."

I am a member of that group and found out from someone here that you can print out your Paper Pieced designs from the site...the companion CD allows you to do that also. The author of the Yahoo group has exclusive rights for the paper pieced patterns I believe? It's not Laurie, the author of the book...go figure!

Wow. It's interesting how the lights or creams you are using in the blocks is carrying over to give the whole quilt a cohesive look. Love them!

I prefer teh black. It actually makes the red stand out more I think. Too much red otherwise. The black adds a real interest. But whatever you choose it will be gorgeous!

Cornie - what a gorgeous combination. Makes me want to try another one with an actual fabric plan! What a concept!

Honchey - it couldn't be more perfect. I am about 5 blocks behind and hope to get caught up this weekend.
