I have a 16 1/2 in. square ruler, so started cutting them that size and sewed the middle row together, then looking through the stack of shirted, I reliazed that several designs were about 17 inches long. Since I needed more length for the quilt, I cut the rest of the blocks 16.5 x 18.5 and that worked out to give the extra length I needed. The finished size of the quilt is approximately 75 by 100 as per request. My sashing strips were cut 1.5 in.
It wasn't all that hard to put together, except for the Pellon fused to the back of the shirts, I had a hard time feeding in through my machine even with my walking foot. The weight of it had a lot to do with it tool.

I'm curious - what size blocks are those. Just wondering for how easy that was or wasn't to work with.
