Hi Ladies - First a big thanks to Deb for coming up with this idea of doing miniature blocks as a group! It's something I've wanted to tackle for some time, but just never got around to... I'd love to join in on the fun!

I'll be happy to go with the majority on the rules Deb, but my preference is to go at my own pace and choose my own blocks to do each month. Like Michelle, I'm going to do the SS blocks instead of the Jane or Hannah blocks -- they're so pretty and best of all, free!

I'm really looking forward to seeing everyones progress and share in the trials and joys of making these small blocks along the way. And I know for me, just coming here to share these things with all of you will keep me motivated!

Suzanne
Welcome to the small world of blocks! We are going to have fun making these blocks and it's good to have you here.

I have made out some "GENERAL" guidelines for those like me who doesn't have a plan of action that can be followed. I did set it as a challenge otherwise I would eventually fall away doing other things and this will kep me focused and those of you who need this to keep you going.

NONE OF IT IS SET IN STONE, above all have FUN!

Guidelines are good! Where are they? I looked on page one, but didn't see them.

Suzanne, glad that you are doing the SS as well, think that this is great will be strivingto get the book for the DJ all the same but since I had wanted to do this one and when this challenge came about I felt that this was the one and only shot at it and yes it is Free!!! She also post most Mondays. Deb I have 4 done and will wait to post them after I get the 5th completed wanted to put at least five in for the beginning and then go from there so too where are the guidelines to make sure that I am not over stepping anything and also a hint hint about the personal album. Thanks!!!

Meg
Kim is going to help me post them to a new Jane Stickle Topic area...just a General-guideline list.

Michelle
You can go ahead and make your album there isn't anything special about them...only thing I added to the guideline list was think about posting the website or book title where you get your patterns giving the owners credit.

My album is made if you want to take a look at it...I have my watermelon patch picture posted there, had to much going on to work on any of my blocks.

Isn't there also blocks called nickel blocks? are they 5" blocks or something like that? Seems like I remember talk of nickel blocks when I came to BC.

Oh Michelle, four done already?? I have some catching up to do!
I did print the first block (the paper-pieced Ohio Star), so I plan on getting that one done tomorrow. Can't wait to see the blocks you've done so far...

Thanks Deb I have set up my album hopefully it is correct, if need to have something different or change anything then please feel free to let me know, I will be adding the blocks as soon as I get this last one completed most likely not tonight, Suzanne this is going to be fun, think that is what everyone is going for FUN, no rushing so keep right on going.

Michelle-
Do I need to change the settings on my printer/page set up? Seems like my midget blocks are coming out on the small side. Yes, well, even smaller than they are supposed to.

Meg do you have it set on Page scaling there I have None and this makes the page prints out accordingly. BTW I have a Lexmark printer, so check your and see if it has something similiar. Let me know how it comes out and what size are they printing out ?
