NEW Dear Jane Block Swap - Spirit of Winter - Blue/White/Gold - Sign-up Closed 1 Jan 10

klue, thanks for the patterns. I had to enlarge them by 6% (106%) so the measurements were correct just like the ones for the Christmas blocks and I darkened by 2 so these old eyes could see better. These two patterns will be much easier for me. I am not ready for applique yet, but maybe someday when I grow up!!!
By the way, I bought another tablet of Transfer Paper at Walmart, tore the amount of sheets out one by one, and have them all printed out, two patterns to a page, easy to see through, tears away easily, and the tablet only cost around $2.50 for 40 pages if anyone is interested. I use the very pointy end of my bamboo stipple to get under the paper and let her 'rip' so to speak. Really easy to tear away.
Now to find the fabric. Thanks again. D

lol bluechicken. The men in white coats will be coming to get you if you aren't careful. You know - the chefs to put you in the stew pot!
I found the paper in the art section. I've used regular copy paper and now this, and I will continue to use the transfer paper unless something much better comes along. Price for me is right and being able to see through it is a great help in lining up, stitching is a breeze, and tearing away is even easier. Availability is is a no brainer. Hope it works for you guys.
