Odds & Ends

Odds and Ends: noun 1. Miscellaneous items, matters, etc. 2. Fragments; remnants; scraps; bits. Based on the Random House Unabridged Dictionary, © Random House, Inc. 2006 This is where I'm putting all the little things that I don't know where to put. For right now, it's where I am putting my mistakes and their corrections.

Schnibbles Mon Ami ~ No. 450 The first printing of the instructions included a couple of errors. Page 1, Cutting Requirements – Step 2. Cut 7 strips – 2 1/2" x 42". Cut a total of 109 squares – 2 1/2" x 2 1/2". Page 2, using a "lighter" square and a "darker" square, make one set of two matching half-triangle squares measuring 2" x 2". Page 3, Step 2 – Trim the half-triangle squares to measure 2" x 2", not 2 1/2" x 2 1/2". Oso ~ No. 445 Yardage Requirements ~ A 1/2 yard of each background isn't quite enough. You'll need 5/8 yard of each background ~ especially the darker background. Sunday Best ~ No. 442 Page 1, Cutting Requirements – Step 2. You only need to cut 1 square – 1 ¾” x 1 ¾” – from each charm square. With two matching charm squares, you’ll have the 2 total squares you need to complete the bowtie. And check the Layout Diagram to see that it matches the layout of the blocks shown on the cover. On the first printing of the pattern, the last row is backwards... upside down... one of those. Madeline ~ No. 439 Click Here for the downloadable PDF with the corrections. Picnic ~ No. 436 Click Here for the downloadable PDF with the corrections. Imagine ~ No. 420 Page 1, Cutting Requirements Page 1, Cutting Requirements – Step 3: The rectangles are cut at 2 1/4" x 3 1/8", not 2 1/2" x 3 1/8"

Large Quilts Route 44 ~ No. 108 On Page 2 ~ Step 2, the background setting squares/triangles are cut at 3 1/4" x 3 1/4". Then on Page 3 ~ Step 4, I refer to the squares as measuring 2 3/4" x 2 3/4". I have absolutely no idea why I did that but please ignore it. Leave the squares at 3 1/4" x 3 1/4". Ashcombe ~ No. 110 It seems as though I printed some of the Draft pages instead of the Final pages. So even when I catch the errors in proofreading, I still manage to mess things up! Make sure you have 2 7/8 yards of background! While that is the yardage specified on the pattern cover, the first printing of the instruction pages states only 2 yards are needed. Uh, not exactly. Then on Page 2 ~ Cutting Instructions. Background Fabric ~ Block Strips. Cut 36 strips. Cut 7 as specified. Cut 9 as specified. Then cut the remaining 20 as specified instead of just 10. Three Coins ~ No. 85 Yikes! This one is a biggie! Please make sure that your pattern has the following for the cutting of the Light Background Prints: 1. Asst. Light Prints for Block Backgrounds. From each fat quarter, cut the following: Star Flying Geese. Cut 1 strip – 5 1/4" x 21" crosswise width of fabric. From the strip, cut 2 squares – 5 1/4" x 5 1/4". From the remainder, cut 2 strips – 2 1/2" x 10 1/2". From each strip, cut 4 squares – 2 1/2" x 2 1/2". Reverse Flying Geese & Star Half-triangle Squares. Cut 2 strips – 2 7/8" x 21" crosswise width of fabric. From each strip, cut 6 squares – 2 7/8" x 2 7/8". Star Block background. Cut 2 strips – 2 1/2" x 21" crosswise width of fabric. From each strip, cut 4 rectangles – 2 1/2" x 4 1/2". Cut a total of 8 rectangles. If necessary, cut 1 square – 2 1/2" x 2 1/2" from the remainder of each strip.
