Just measure the diagonal (finished size) then divide the length of your quilt
by the diagonal. Do the same for the width.
If you want your quilt to be 100" long and the diagonal is 12".
this means 100/12= 8.33 blocks. Round up or down.
Make a sketch on graph paper.
If you don't want to do the math, put your blocks on the bed
overlapping them to account for the seams. This should give
you a good idea on the number of blocks you need lengthwise
and widthwise.
