**You will want to Download the file and then print the .pdf file.  When you print, make sure that scaling is turned off enabling the document to print at 100%.  Take a moment to measure.  The Solid Line along the bottom edge of section B should measure 5".  If you print directly from the Google Docs screen you might come out with a slightly smaller sized block.**


Don't forget to come back and post the link to your blocks so I can see them.  I LOVE to see them!!  Don't have a blog or don't have time to post?  Just email me a picture and I'll get it uploaded.

Yikes

This particular Kaffe Flower is a little on the ugly side. The center just isn't doing what I thought it would. Oh well, moving onto the next one!!

Quilts on Barns - #85 Flying Frontier

Barn #85 kicks off with the 10 new to me Barn Quilts that I saw this past Sunday.  Flying Frontier is located at W1948 County OK in Brodhead, WI  53520.  I thought this was a pretty fascinating block.  I've never seen it before.

 

Pages? Blogger now supports PAGES??

How cool is that?  Of course if you're reading from a blog reader you wouldn't see the pages but the fact that I can actually add up to 10 pages now is pretty cool and I'm betting most Blogger Blog writers have yet to find out about this.  Create Pages in Blogger

So far I've added a page for my Block of the Week and a page for my Barn Quilt Tour.  Of course, this also means I'll have to update the code for my blog button but long term...this is REALLY COOL!!!  It's about time Blogger got on board!

Tonight we had an employee open sew at the shop.  It was so much fun and I'm looking forward to next time.    I sashed and assembled the heart quilt that One I and I made blocks for.  Tonight I hope to put the borders on and get to work on the backing.  I didn't put sashing and corner stones around the outside edge which is something I've never done before.  I did it this way because I'm using the sashing fabric also for the border.  It looks ok in EQ so I'm hoping that in real life it is too.

I'm having laptop AC Adapter issues.  I keep getting this error:

The thing is, it IS a Dell 65W AC Adapter and I've changed nothing.  This has just started within the last day or two.  Has anyone else out there had this same error?  I've re-seated the plugs, took the battery in and out and the next step per the help page is to update my bios.  Bios...that sounds a bit scary and extreme to me!!

Barnstorming Sunday!

Instead of taking in the Super Bowl, we did a little Barnstorming in Green County.  We saw 30 Barns while on our journey, ten of which were new to me.  In the album below you will be able to see the barns we visited last year, but in the snow.  The barns that are new to me, I’ll post separately.

View Full Album

Enjoy!

Heart Blocks

I just realized that I never posted a picture of these blocks that I made the other week.

We're heading out to visit quilt blocks on barns tomorrow.  I'm excited!!

Glacé Flower Garden

Over the last few days I've been working on these two Glace flowers. I had started assembling both of them before I started the Valentines Day table runner. I decided I needed to get these two completed before I even would Allow myself to cut out fabric for my Kaffe Fasset GFG.

This brings me to 10 of the 25 I think I need for this project.

Oz notebook

I finished a notebook wrap this morning for Lisa's birthday. We just got the fabric in on Tuesday so I snatched it up.

What I really like is the quilting that I did on it. I just went back and forth sewing wonky lines.

The fabric line is Oz by Sanae for Moda.
