    I have labelled zip lock bags and am putting my houses in these. House 1 and house 2 this month.

      Did you sew all of the houses together??? It looks like the different houses are separated from the different sizes.

        In one of the tutorial videos, Barbara says that we should not sew the houses together as small house 3 and 4 will be made in another month.

            On the show and in the videos Barbara shows how she cut the background fabric to avoid bias and too much wastage, she has a sheet with the sizes marked on it to cut, is that available somewhere? Or should I just watch the videos again and take notes? I can only see the main PDF for Month 1 when I login and it's not on it. Thanks

                      I have not seen the houses to print on the site. I know there was a problem but it appears people have it. How can I get the download?

                        I decided to bond my windows and doors to give me something to play with. These are houses No2, and today’s play.
                        I also intend to add some parks as I live in a rural area, but that’s for another day!

                            I have almost one house done, but the little bits and wax and all the rest of it is making me insane. I'll try to do another one, but I think bonding windows and doors and whatnot are definitely in my future.

                              Make sure you are logged in as a Star Member. The patterns are under LEARN: BOM: 2021. Some find it easier to access under Classrooms.

                              If you still can't access that pattern and are sure you are logged in as a Star Member., please put a post on the Topic: UPDATE ON WEBSITE ISSUES. That is the topic that is being monitored for problems of Star members.

                              Thanks.
