I received my copy just days ago. I am very impressed with the quality and low price. I have been wanting to make the love notes quilt sometime.

But if you position the blocks as shown in photo 4 the charms will fall diagonally from the upper right to the bottom left!

Also on page 63: The captions under the pictures come from page 77: garden party quilt.
I don't know what happened to the captions for page 63. Maybe someone else will find them.

My husband did some editing of colleagues' books while working on his PhD. He said the first time through you find thousands of mistakes. The second time you find hundreds; the third time you find tens, and after that they just get printed into the book.

The original post said it was in a forum. So I looked in the forum section first. Made sense to me to do that.

Hi there, it should get to you any day now (if you haven't received it already). The magazines shipped out from Pennsylvania using a bulk media shipment method with the USPS which takes longer than usual, it's our first time, so we're learning how it all works. You will get it, it just is taking its sweet time. Sorry for the wait and we thank you for your patience with our growing family business and first magazine. We can only get better from here right
