Both my D9P used 5" squares. The block finishes at 13 1/2", so you need to decide how large you want your quilt. I think the one that was a lap quilt for a nursing home was 3 X 4 with borders. Anything bigger would be too large in my opinion. I like to make my center square the same in all the blocks. It's the one that gets cut in small pieces. My daughter's quilt was set on point and had sashing, so it was much larger, but she is a tall girl. You need 108 squares for the 3 block by 4 block size. 12 matching for the centers and 96 others. I don't have a picture of the lap quilt, but do the first one. [ATTACH=CONFIG]616553[/ATTACH]
