I understand the pattern will not be available after 2022, but will these videos be available in 2023?

My computer or printer do not copy mirror or reverse image. I usually end up tracing on the back of the pattern. Does it matter if I do not reverse print? Thank you. I am on Mays blocks.

Some quilters might all ready know this, but I will give this hint anyway…….use your stitch in the ditch foot when doing paper piecing. It follows right along the paper fold and prevents wandering.

Hi Barb. I am loving this project. I am trying to locate the picture/diagram where you have numbered each section that will be presented each month. Would you please refresh my memory as to where it is located. Thx

Can I do this quilt without buying the items on the resource file. It will be too expensive for me to order them from Jersey UK sadly.?

I know this is probably a crazy question, but how do I post on the forum page? This comment area is easy to find to post, but I just can't find where to do that on the forum.
