Block 8 is coming up instead of Block 9
Hi Lisa. Love the SAL and have been following along. One small hiccup, when I click on the link for Block 9 above, I get the instructions for Block 8.
The link for block #9 takes me back to block #8.
FYI – The blog may have said block 9, but it was block 8 again.
On the Web blog page where you see click here to print Block #9 it does have the #9 and not 8
The new block #9 has the Block # 8 instructions
The SAL-Block 9 is going to block #8.
When I go to download & print block 9 the instructions for block 8 appear
Thank you for sharing the quilt pattern of flags with all of us. I have enjoyed making them with you on you tube. I hope it raises a lot of money for the Vets. I watch you on you tube all the time. Thank you for being there.

I have no computer, or know how to use one. I would buy a printed pattern for the blocks. Is that possible. I can use phone in a limited way. Got help to send this message. Thank you. Hv ?email, but can only erase after i see/read what gets there.
The block 9 link takes you to block 8
I also got #8. Did a correction email come out? Thank you. Polly
This is block 8
when I clock on block 9 block 8 comes up .
I just clicked on block 9 and it came up ! Thank you !
Where is block 9 instructions ? It keeps going to block 8.
Sorry, Lisa, I don’t find the block 9 : the link goes to the 8… Love this QAL!
