Please send patterns to my email thank so much
Hello, thank you so much for the opportunity to learn some new techniques. I have noticed some real confusion on the Facebook page. It might be helpful if Admin put something out explaining how the program runs and where to get the files ect on Facebook. Unfortunately some people are being rather negative about a really great opportunity.
Thanks

Let’s do this!
I signed up for the quilting challenge, and I got the email about the block one, however, I was under the understanding that we would listen to a live video of how to put the block together. All I was able to do was download a pattern. I do not have facebook. Is that where you only get the video and can ask questions? I am totally confused, and crushed after watching Gina live last night at midnight.
Hello Donna,
We are excited that you are signed up for the challenge. There is not a live video on how to put the block together, however Gina Perkes will be checking in on the Facebook group to offer tips throughout the challenge.

Looking forward to enjoying the patterns
I’m very new to quilting so I’m already having problems following the instructions. My list of colors show that C is white and D is light yellow but the 1st set of flying geese on page 2 states to use A & C but the colors in the example are using A & D. Page 3 does show that C is white. Is this by chance a typo or am I missing something? Thks

I missed the first week so I have been working on both blocks today. I have always wanted a scrappy red, white and blue in reproduction fabrics that i have been collecting. I’n not really sure if they are all reproductions but close enough for me. I’m also going to work with directional fabrics. I have recut and ripped out more today than any time except when I was back in 4h learning to sew garments! Pictures will be coming soon. I only have a few hours to sew a week.
Thank you

just loving seeing everyones quilt colors.
Hello, School is out so it is time to work on this lovely block challenge. Do you know where I can find the Color numbers for Blocks 1,2? The color coding without the numbers is a bit too challenging for me and the other blocks do have the colors coded to the master material list. Thank you
At present doing the Lexington Quilt,fascinated by Photos of the Pleiades being posted.

I would like to make the Lexington quilt and need all of the patterns. Thank you!

The orginal overall quilt design in the yardage file is different than Block 1: Celaeno Star. Can we add the tilted red tilted hour glasses? If so what are the cut measurements for those pieces. Also on the instructions dont include measurements for piece B? It can’t be 2 1/2″.
