I have also decided to make my own Matt's quilt. The a flannel plaid is left over scraps from a previous quilt back, the print is a 2/3 yard flannel print found at Goodwill, the green flannel was also purchased at GW, all 14 yards of it, LOL. The back a butter/tan flannel sheet. Not sure about the batting yet.

I bought a bag of this thread at a yard sale. but here is the info on the band. DFN craft thread ...janlynn.com.. Don't know if JoAnns carries it as I never looked. I have enough in this bag to last a long time. smile. Not the same aswhat they use for dish cloths. Skein looks just like a thicker embroidery thread and package same way. here is a picture.

Here's the link to the original post for Matt's quilt:
http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...t-t209990.html
Cutting instructions are in post #51. This is what she said: "Here are the measurements I used. The strips were 2 1/2" x 6 1/2 "" the squares 6 1/2 " The border is 10 ". This all with 1/4 " seam. I used 35 solid and 35 strip squares. It covers my double bed from the head to foot with a slight overhang on the sides.
I, too, love your quilt! It's going on my "After Christmas To-Do" list.

Yes, just finished mine today. Don't know where the third pic came from. Can't get rid of it.
