Hi Debby, glad you decided to join in, the quilt currently will finish up about 60" square, but you can add more blocks to make it bigger. Let me know what size you are looking for and I can do some other blocks for you to add.
The fabrics listed are for this size quilt, so if you are going to make it bigger, be sure to order more fabric.

:lol:
Hi Peg...I would like that, too. I would like the quilt to end up about 85x85 or 90x90. Maybe another swag border added in there somewhere? :-) You're the best!!
I would also like to add some extra blocks.

This weekend I will do up some additional sizes, queen & king with additional blocks and maybe another border. Will post them for those who want to increase their quilt.

If it finishes up at 60", then, is the border shown not included? I like the applique of flowers around the squares and was planning to scallop the edge. My progress has been slow. I changed my fabric selection for the stems and leaves, and am ready to cut now.
I was refering to the White border with the leaves and flowers running around the squares, not extra blocks. That row doesn't seem to add into your figures. It was not my intention to add work to you. I appreciate all you have done.

I would like to make mine larger also. Maybe queen size. I will post a picture of the corner block I finished. I tried the rouching for the first time and really enjoyed doing it. Hope I did it right

Looks terrific. My ruching didn't turn out right so will try that another time. Right now I'll just do the needle turn. I love how yours looks though.

Here is a 94" square version of the quilt, I added a couple of plain borders and then an outside swag border. The border is square but it would look really nice curved with the swag!

I really like that. I am going to have to see if I can get more backround fabric to match what I have.
