I sent Missy an idea of some that I could purchase and am waiting on her response, however, IF you have enough of that beautiful bird fabric and with your generous offer I would love to purchase it from you!!!! You are really an angel and I can't thank you enough!!!! As soon as I hear from Missy, I will let you know!!

Blessings to you!!!!

Thank you, Carsey. I am wondering how it will come together myself.

Good evening Missy - i am not too sure if anyone else is having the same problem as me, but Clue 2 - Step 8 - when i have joined all the wonderfully PERFECT ( :lol: ) edges together to make our first block you show the centre as being "CUT" is that correct to make the centre not bulky! How far down do you cut and do you go through the material right next to the centre stitching lines. If this is not the case, i do not know how to fold them both different ways like the other 2 sides which are immediately facing the opposite ways when joined.. Hoping i am making sense. :? I am scared that if i cut - i will make the stitching come UNDONE.
Thanks CQ

Watch this video http://www.hgtv.com/video/tennessee-...deo/index.html at the end.. like the last 30 seconds or so... and you'll see what I mean. she shows you how to do it. :)
