I made one about 20+ yrs ago, after seeing one at a quilt show. I had a girl that was working at the show measure the size of the tumbler. My quilt is all raggedy now, because it's the one that I sleep with every night, or I would take a picture of it for you.

Here is the measurement of the tumbler that I used....Bottom edge--3-1/4 inches...Top edge--1-3/4 inch and the length from top to bottom is 3-1/2 inches tall. These are finished measurements and don't include the seam allowance. I like the size of it--not too big and not too small.

I'm about to make a miniature tumbler quilt and the size of each block is: bottom edge--1-1/4", top edge--3/4" and length is 1-1/2"
