Math help needed
I'm piecing a Blooming Nine Patch for my daughter. I changed the size of the patches/blocks to 5 inches (unfinished). The pattern calls for 8 colors but I have 12 so I can get it to a max width of 100 inches. I'm working on color 7 and have the whole thing laid out in the garage so my daughter could see the progression of colors she purchased. Since I can't sew the on point rows together until I get the patches and blocks sewn/cut AND I changed the size of the blocks AND the actual pattern width is 72 inches and I need 100 AND my brain is fried from making nine patches, can anyone help me figure out how many rows/colors are needed to the width I need? I have pieced plenty of on point comfort quilts, but never a king size. What was I thinking when my daughter's husband picked out this pattern??? I so wish the picture would load for you to see it because it will be a stunning quilt. Depending on how the sizing goes from here on out, I can leave out a color OR double up on the last color as we bought much yardage of that last row. Thank you.
