I signed up to do all the names and life has gotten in the way. DH injured his already very bad back and I injured my foot. I am way behind on sending back completed blocks but if ya'll bear with me I WILL get them all done and mailed back by the 1st of February. I promise. I have about 32 done and currently have 29 waiting for me. Have two more in the mailbox at the moment. I try and get a couple done a day along with everything else. teach me to sign up for all the names. Please, Please, bear with me and I'll get ALL of them done. thank you.

I figure if I get 2 or 3 done in a week I have done good.

I have not done that particular pattern but I might know what you did wrong. Some PP patterns do not include the cut line on the outside of the piece. You need to add 1/4" all around. Could you have possibly cut on the sew line? This would make your block smaller and and the pattern not quite line up right. Check it out. That may be it. You don't want to give up PPing.

I'm still trying to make it work, I think I bit off more than I can chew...LOL on this block.. But it was so pretty!

I chose to work on some simpler blocks for a few days and then try returning to the challenge tomorrow evening. We will see if I can figure it out. Good luck with your challenge! Kristin Garnet1265 |
Grown up block going home to Aully. I am only waiting on 1 F8 from Winter. That is deltadawn. All other F8s are done and either home or on their way home.

Here is an update for the completed blocks I have received. 1 from the yellow print and 2 more for the fall leaf print (which my mother saw and loved, so at least I know she likes it.)
