On the "Combine" screen, over on the far right, at the bottom, there's a drop-down box where you can choose the number of columns. :)
Thanks again for the awesome block! I think I can draw it in my CAD program. :thumbup:

Ok this is going to sound silly, and please don't just say what you think I want to hear but I have seen some awesome paper pieced blocks in this swap. Some of you have the seen the quality and skill level of my work, do you all think that I could paper piece a block? Is there a book or a program to teach it? Is it hard to learn?

Definitely. Just pick an easier one. There are some pretty easy ones out there, fatcatpatterns. you just have to look for them. Also look on the tutorials and links, I have found a lot through them. Just do a search for paper piecing on this board, there are a zillion pattern websites. Have fun, I love paper piecing.

I learned from QuiltersCache's tutorial. It starts you out with a simple pattern, and once you get the hang of it, you can pretty much do any paper piecing pattern that's out there. Here's a link:
