Wooohoooooo all looks great and Betty you are so welcome, just all in the day of a good co-hostess to help you out when I can. Great work ladies. the blocks are beauties, can't wait till I can work on mine for this month and last month.

Betty
I added the past blocks in the album.. I hope I did it right. Just let me know if its ok
Julia

Julia, I'm sure they are fine! I'll go look I need to do some editing in them anyway!

Betty

Julia, the photos are fine but some do not have names and some months. I need both on the blocks I don't have the time to look up all the information so you will have to label your blocks when you put them up.

This goes for everyone! You need to label your photos so that we will know what they are, who chose them and the month. Just a month or just a block name will not do.

I just don't have the time to go back and look up this information.

Julia, add them again and I will go in and remove the duplicates.

Thanks,
Betty

I'm saving the patterns, Betty, but won't be able to work on the last couple of months blocks until end of April at the earliest. I have two, count 'em, TWO weeks left to pack up ALL our stuff, and man, do I have STUFF!!! Add to that, that we are not yet done the floors at the house - we did get 4 of the 5 appliances today, and they are installed!! Woohooooo! But I hope it's OK for me to be tardy.

By the way, I REALLY like this month's blocks!! Great choice!

Gerda, you don't worry about those blocks. You have a lot on your plate. Take the time you need.

Betty

Ladies, I just wanted to mention that if you are doing the Left And Right main block selection be very careful in placment of your final pieces. Placement is critical to make it match the block pattern. Template A print 2 of them; Template B print 2 also and it is the reverse of Template A. Look closely because they placement is tricky.

Julia, if you will look at the photo of the block and compare yours it doesn't match. I thought the block was just placed wrong but I tried to flip it every sort of way and it doesn't come out correctly. This drove me nuts last night but I'm making mine today so I'll try to get it right! lol But don't count on it.

Okay after the previous message I posted, I have been sewing my Left & Right Block. Julia, you will get a large kick out of this. I printed my 2 A Templates and my 2B Templates. I made the first 2 A's without a hitch, made the first of my B template without a thought to pay attention to the center fabric...made it just like the 2 A Templates....well the 3rd block came out identical to the 1st two and it's not right. So on template B realize that your fabrics will be reversed. I mine fabrics the A templates show the red fabric in the center of those blocks and B template I need to put the white in the center! lol

Leave it to me to mess it up! I do it all the time! You know the old saying - "If at first you don't succeed, try try again!" Well that's my motto! lol

Okay so now that I've complete the last block...well it's still wrong! Now I have two wrong ones! Guess I need to make 2 more opposite to go along with those. I think I will put it up until after dinner and try to do it right one time is all I need!
