I'm really surprised that they published the instructions with so many errors and her website doesn't address all of them. That turns me off on trying one of her patterns, have loved them all but won't deal with those headaches. You are the best to share what you found out and shared how to go about fixing her mistakes. Love how this quilt is coming along, it is one of my favorites because of the cats.

I did this one as a shop sample for our now closed LQS. But also. I did not fuse anything down until I had all the parts cut from the fabrics. I tell you this hoping it will cause you less grief trying to follow a pattern which indeed is written for a seasoned quilter. You are a seasoned Quilter, so I know you can do this. I also don't usually fuss too much about exactly matching the layout perfectly. I look at the picture and place the parts where they belong or in the general vicinity. It is your quilt, you can have all the artistic license you need. Enjoy the process! It will be beautiful and bring you great joy when it is done.crazy quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05732146613926403990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5045426307379086704.post-34132378659789299652014-10-30T17:19:26.849-07:002014-10-30T17:19:26.849-07:00Your block looks great.
