Henrietta Updates & Class
Wow, some of you are working fast on the Henrietta quilt. You already have your backgrounds pieced! I’m really amazed! For the rest of you please remember the general instructions are just that…general. You’ll get the exact cutting directions every month with each block. Don’t feel like you need all the backgrounds pieced at once. You can do them as you go along.
Because some of you are such super fast quilters we’ve caught 3 mistakes in the General Directions for Henrietta Whiskers. Henrietta is so glad you took the time to email me! She’s driving me crazy because every time she sees an email with her name in it she gets really excited! I’ve got to get her out of the studio!
If you’d like a corrected copy of the General Instructions just click on “free” from this blog or my website. If you’d like to update the ones you have here are the corrections:
Page Three
Sku # 2673 18 add two 2 1/2″ x 2 1/2″ squares
Sku #2676 11 under Top & Bottom applique strip: add one more 4 1/2″ x 4 1/2″ square for a total of 5 (one is for block five)
Sku #2052 13: should be 2 1/2″ x 12 1/2″ (not 10 1/2″)
Page Four
Change bottom left corner strip to 2 1/2″ x 12 1/2″ (not 2 1/2″ x 10 1/2″)

Anne do you have a flicker group set up for Herietta whiskers? I am almost done with block one and I so enjoy seeing everyones work. Thanks again for a wonderful pattern and thanks for helping with my order I had it so messed up but you made it perfect got it today!

Thanks so much for your BOM patterns. I discovered Snowbound in mid Dec and was able to download all the patterns before sweet Henrietta appeared. While literally snowbound at home in Atlanta during last week’s freak snowstorm, I was able to complete the whole Snowbound quilt top (minus borders) and Henrietta Whiskers block one. All hand appliqued. Sometimes snowstorms can be so much fun!!

My order arrived today…thank you! Where do you buy the wonderful saltwater taffy? I bought some recently at Safeway and it was horrible…had to throw it away! ;0
