Tips & Corrections

Dogwood Grove - Replacement for Pages 3 & 6 There are errors on pg 3 & 6 with fabric 1 & 2 being reversed. Please print and use the replacement pages.

The updated pages have a small black flower on the bottom left before the copyright line.


On the first printing there was a typo on the fabric requirements for backing. It should say Backing 44” Wide - 4½ yds


Arabella - *V-Block Clarification NOTE * 

On pg. 1 the fabric 1 & 10 cuts are for using the 2-Peaks-in-1 Ruler (for V-Block). If you are using a different ruler to make the V-blocks, adjust cuts to accommodate your ruler method. V-Blocks sizes will also need to be adjusted on pgs. 3 & 4.


pg. 13 - Do to varying widths of fabric you may need an 2 additional 3" x 10" pieces of fabric 5 for the 88 1/2" side borders.

Add the 10" pieces to the end of each pair. Starting at the 10" section, measure and cut 2 - 3" x 88 1/2" for sides.

During the first printing of the Contessa V-Block paper template, there was a problem in the printing translation and it measured 4 5/8" square instead of the correct 4 1/2" square. The template has been corrected. Please use the template labeled "REVISED 11/26/12". Revised V-Block template (pdf) Do not "use scale to fit" when printing (printing should be at 100%); after printing make sure your template measures 4 1/2" square!
Contessa Correction

Northern Stars:
A clarification on pg.11 under Four-Patch/Geese:
The pattern reads: When assembling the unit make sure that the fabric 9 square points are touching the flying geese points.
The points will not actually touch. There will be some float. We were trying to say that the geese points should align and go in the same direction as the fabric 9 squares.

Cardinal in the Pines:
The diagrams shifted in a printing on pg. 2. In some patterns the text is covered by the fussy cut diagram. Here is the text for the fussy cutting section on pg. 2:
Fussy Cutting - Fussy Cutting simply means a block is cut so that the motif of the fabric is centered in the square. Lay fabric right side down. Using a pencil, mark your designated square size centering the motif. We found 6½” and 4½” square rulers made this job easier. Be careful when cutting not to slice into other motifs you may want to use those later; we recommend using scissors. Below is an example of how to mark the fussy cuts. The Cardinal in the Pines quilt will require 20 - 6½” focal squares. The extra projects in this pattern will use 4½” focal blocks; 5 for the pillow and 7 for the table runner. The greenery only areas will be used in the table runner. Utilize your fabric wisely when cutting if you are planning to make all projects.

Tonga Rhapsody:
1. Page 19 on the instructions for Inner borders tells you to make 2 of each unit but you need to make 4 of each unit.  It should look like this:
Tonga Rhapsody correction
2. On the upper right of page 16, diagrams C & D have a fabric reversal. They should look like this:
3. On page 16, here is a clarification to the Trimming the Blocks diagrams. The wording is the same as in the pattern but we clarified the diagrams.
Tonga Rhapsody correction
Back to Nature & Tonga Nature: Block 7 - If you are having trouble with the triangle geese block. Trim down the HST-D to 1 7/8" instead of 2".
At Home with Nature Book: On page 2 in the cutting chart, Fabric 5 should be Fabric 13.
