To be honest, while I loved the pattern (and the book), I was never crazy about the two quilts in the book.
They were kind of mushy to me.
Of course, the choice of fabrics back them was nothing compared to what it is now.
I've also altered the pattern - more fabrics, less fabrics, changed the shape - made it longer, square, etc.
On the later ones I started adding borders because I liked the way it looked - it also made the quilt bigger to better fit a queen size bed .
A friend made one with 10 fabrics AND a border to fit a California king.
That one was a beast.
I recently found all those worksheets, so if you want to change the size, and need the adjusted yardage and block requirements, I have them.
