Hi Mary,
I joined this group late... they were over halfway! So I have been trying to keep up weekly and also work from the start of the book too-- on my 'catch up blocks', LOL. If you want to make this quilt with us, there are some of us who are behind the others and will not quite finish in three weeks. We go to the thread for the week's blocks and post them in their proper thread when we are done making them. Then there is a main thread where we chit chat a lot. I hope all the ladies still visit there when they are done. I will miss everyone if they don't!
I paper piece all my blocks using the 1930's repros, and most of mine come out at about 6.25" square. Some are 6.5". I'm sure I'll be doing some adjusting when it comes time to put them all together.
