The 6x8 inch blocks with a 1" stopper border and 3" larger border finishes at 74x80. Let me know if you want the 9x12 version of the quilt and the cutting directions.

Added note. To get the 4 patches as squares, the 9x12" size is better. I'll post that block in a few minutes. I was wrong. For the 9x12, the corner 4 patches are 2" finished. For the 6x8, the corner 4 patches are a 1 1/2" finished square each.

Barb in Louisiana ~ You are so generous yet again in helping someone with your time in sharing visual guides not to mention suggestions in color placement to reach desired effects! I want to send out a BIG personal thank-you for all that you do to contribute to this forum.

I'm constantly amazed at the generosity of so many on this forum to 'help' those of us that need a little more guidance in this journey called quilting!
