Help with size of Twister Quilt
#1
I want to make a 48" x 60" quilt using the 10" twister tool, I don't know how to figure out how many 10" blocks I need to cut, I know you use a 6" outer border and I think a 2" inner border. Can anyone help me figure this out. Oh and some how you have to figure in the border for the blocks. I'm so confused. Can someone help me? thanks

I used a 6½" ruler and sewed 8½" blocks. 8 across and 10 down with a 6" border all round. There is very little waste this way. with a 48x60 you would need 6 across and 8 down with the 6" border and you should come pretty close to that size. I had pictures on the board sometime ago, will try and find them....
