"When I go to a certain project, I am told that an e-mall has been sent. But no e-mails ever arrive. And yes, I checked my Spam and Trash files. I also receive Malware notices for Sugar Spun Quilts. Your website is too difficult. Unable to use."

"There are so many ads on this page that I can't download this ebook. Chrome keeps on waiting for the ads to show up on the page and then my download request, in the lower left corner of my Chrome window disappears and messages about waiting for ad windows keep popping up. Very disappointing!"

Shoofly Quilt Block

"Learn how to sew a Shoofly Quilt Block during week 2 of our Spring Block of the Week! This easy block is perfect for a beginning quilter!! Also learn a technique for making half square triangles within the directions for this week’s block!! The history of the Shoofly Quilt Block dates back to the mid-1800’s! This 9-patch block was named after a wild plant with rounded flowers called clover broom or shoofly. Another name for this quilt block is “Hole in the Barn Door”. No matter the name, this cute little block is super duper easy and fun to make!!! The finished block will measure 12 ½” x 12 ½” square."
