    If you cut it to a size that your printer accepts it will go through the printer. (I haven't done it b/c I usually draw my patterns). It isn't hard at all there are many you tube videos that show how to do it, I actually think it is a bit easier.

    Don't be intimidated at all, there are many skill levels we love getting the simple blocks as well as the more complicated ones. I love pushing the envelope, some of our boomers are artistic and can do amazing things w/ applique. Really if the block is 12.5 inches, w/ good seaming it is great.

Now being the frugal person that I am, I proceeded to buy enough additional fabric to get free shipping. Lol

    Oh that’s a gorgeous block Kassaundra I think you’re right; fewer prints would make the block more dramatic.

    We’ll be home tomorrow after being gone for 10 days. Great time with both of my sons and grandchildren were all there too.
    I will get busy deciding on fabric and getting it ready to go.

    Sign-ups will remain open through Wednesday of next week, July 17. The 3 month group is almost filled with two vacancies but the 2 month group sits at only 6 signed up. As we get closer to the end of sign-ups, we can discuss our options for the 2 month group. I'm not surprised that sign-ups are slower this round. Summer is often a bit harder to fill up. We'll see how the next few days go. If there is anyone sitting on the fence about the 3 month group, please get your name in!

    As always, if you spot a mistake or your name is missing from the lists, don't hesitate to let me know and I'll fix it asap. Thank you!

    I plan on signing up for the 2 month group - just have not got around to sending the email when I'm on my home computer.

    Kass what fun dressies, will make a fantastic border.

    Hubby has this week off and we have been enjoying our time at the lake. Weather has cooperated so far and have been able to cruise the lake everyday. Sold the pontoon without even listing it and now I need to list the jet ski’s and lifts. They won’t sell as quickly but take up much less space so no biggie

    H4B, the blue is so soft and lovely while the kitty print is so bright and fun. Both are going to be great to work with
