Correcting to Month 3 instructions: (March 2013)

Under Making the Block, Step #1 should read "With right sides together, lay a 2" cream texture square (not a 1 1/2" square) onto opposite corners of 4 blue print 4 3/4" squares as shown." Note that the cutting instructions are correct, so this change does not affect the yardage requirement. We apologize for any inconvenience.
