  2. I have enjoyed each and every week of the Quilty Fun Week(s). I can't wait to finish this Quilt and am sooooo happy that a next one is 'just around the corner'! Yay!!

  3. Melanie, I use a sheet of Transfer-Eze. It goes in your printer. Print the pattern onto the sheet, then stick it to your fabric. Embroider, then the sheet dissolves in cold water when you are done.

  4. Hi,
    I am working on my border and cut the 200 1 1/2 in squares but I am only using 104. Am I missing something? I have lots of little squares leftover.
    Thanks!

  5. My quilt is finished. I wish I knew how to post a picture. Lori's instructions are fabulous. I love that it shows which way to press the seams. I also like that Lori tells us how long to cut the border pieces. Many people tell us "about" how long so we can measure through the center of the quilt. I am glad that Lori has the confidence in us to know that we will have accurate seam allowances and end up at the right dimension. I was so excited to get the last assembly instructions, but as it went together so quickly I was sad that it was over. I am super happy to see that there will be another quilt along with the granny squared. I had a few things that I am not sure about with the final instructions for cutting the background for Quilty fun. I only needed 5 more 1 1/2 x 13 1/2 strips. I had cut three during the block making phase. I only needed 104 1 1/2 inch squares for the postage stamp border and I needed 4 more 2 inch strips for the borders for a total of 10.
