Block 13 = Fail

So, last night I spent about an hour putting this block together ... all the time thinking something just wasn't right with it ...

See the ruler on the left, that's the size it should be ... I'm about an inch short. Not right to say the least! It's back to the drawing board with this one :-)

A very pretty block none-the-less and a great addition to your orphan box.

Oh i would be so eager to get to the next block that i would heavily starch a 1/2 inch strips and stitch them all round to make it the finished size ;)all your quilts and blocks are so gorgeous, especially that Nearly Insane Quilt.

I hope you use the same fabrics. this combo is lovely. Did you use the templates from the CD. My templates all came out a little small, nothing i did made them print at 100%. I joined the yahoo group and now use the paper piecing templates from their files... I also have a rotary cutting guide that i think came from them as well.. no problems since. They also have a file that has all the templates on 15 pages ( instead of 100+ ) and they print at 100%.With best wishes
