Do any of you hate the popcorn stitch as much as I do?! I have forced myself to do it for this CAL, but it hasn’t made me like them any better. I shudder to think how many hours our ancestors spent under poor lighting, using thread, to make those bedspreads! Judi in Phoenix
No worries!! Not hounding at all… Sometimes comments don’t post until we respond.
Thank you, I was having a question on that.
Thx! when I posted the blog showed I was the only comment, I didn’t mean to hound you! :-)
It has been corrected

It has been corrected.
It is an error in the pattern. It should Read Fpdc around previous row FPdc. We will get that corrected.
Sorry we will get that fixed.
Yes, you do. We give another week to do that, but you can do that as you go. Whatever you are more comfortable with.
We apologize, we will get that taken care of immediately.
The square numbers are the same as squares in week 9.
Do we put the border on these squares too?
Hi!
I’m just wondering why the square numbers are the same as week 9. Did I miss something?

Re square 27 pictured above….is the picture wrong or is the pattern wrong. Rows 3 and 5 offset each other so the rows should not look so even .
Weren’t last weeks squares numbered 26-29?
