I can't believe that I have finished this block and today is only May 3rd. I only joined the group a couple of weeks ago. I had a little problem. My stitchery was not the correct size so I had to do some patching. I thought, at first that it was because I had cut it too short, although I cut on the line. But after looking at the pattern in the book, I realized that somewhere in the transfer of the page to email to copier, the shape changed. See, I'd gotten the patterns over the line from Chooky Blue. Regardless, it doesn't interfere with the look of the finished block. I do wish we had the dimensions for the blocks so I'd know if my measurements are correct. I did a little squaring up but was afraid to do too much.I've transferred the pattern for the potting shed and weather vane so I can begin to stitch on them. I think they'll be easier since they are a little bigger with more straight lines. Oh, and this time, I used a ruler when drawing to make my lines straighter. My fence in the first block is very crooked. I am pretending it is a wire fence. Ha!
Happy Stitching,
Mama Bear
