I actually haven't opened my cd, but people have said its just the templates, no dimensions.<br /><br />I am drafting my blocks myself and doing the maths. I also have a handy block encyclopedia to hand to help with the proportions if I can't quite figure them out by eye. Lots of helpful hints can be found online to help too.<br /><br />I'll most likely be changing some blocks slightly in order to make them easier to construct. The 'Butterfly at the Crossroads' block, for example, looks like it is divided into 5 equal parts in the book, but the maths didn't work with a 6" block, so I made my center square smaller than the others. Ultimately, It's my quilt and I'll be sewing it in a way that makes me happy, and not worrying to much about exactly replicating the traditional blocks.teacupfaeryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06940459823266841489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5714021677330116905.post-72306337804449066002013-07-12T11:05:59.432+01:002013-07-12T11:05:59.432+01:00Those are looking great!

Totally agree with you about trying to do them without templates. Does the CD tell you easily what size to cut? I wish they'd put sizes in the book, would be so much easier.Franhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00864975669569581669noreply@blogger.com
