Is this a clear as mud? Thanks, Sherryl Candlequilter |
That's not as big as sounded. I thought it would make a huge quilt, I guess I need another 100.

Maybe add some borders or sashing ?
sew 4 together and frame them out |
If you do a 10 x 10 square layout - (5.5 x 5.5 inch sewn size) - you would end up with a 55 x 55 inch top
If you do a 9 x 11 square layout - you would end up with a 49.5 x 60.5 inch top (this would use 99 squares) If you do an 8 x 12 square layout - you would end up with a 44 x 66 inch top (this would use 96 squares) the six inch cut squares "finish" to 5.5 (5-1/2) inches so multiply 5.5 x (number of squares) to get a dimension Or multiply 11/2 x (number of squares) to get a dimension |
wow, thanks for the tips

sounds like enough for a throw. I just made one for my mail lady using charms, added frame and border. Its 45 by 56".
simple quilter |
I have been using the 10 minute block and it sews up nicely with the 6" squares [will need 5 because of the center]. just a thought.

Thanks for all the ideas :D
