    the full size quilt will be a total of 6 - 12" blocks across and 6 - 12" blocks down for a total measurements of 80" X 80" after the borders are added. there haven't been any clues for cuts given yet other than the finished block sizes and that the focus fabric will be 12.5 X 12.5 unfinished blocks. She did say that she would start towards the end of the month? with the cutting clues but for now we're just supposed to gather our fabrics and get them ready for cutting (shopped for, washed, ironed, etc.. )

    You are a EVIL WICKED MONKEY WOMAN, Missy! You posted the cutting guide when I'm supposed to be working on my orders! Now I'll have to arm wrestle myself into staying at the computer and filling my orders; NOT drifting over to my sewing area. It's all your fault!! LOL!!

    Sheesh, some people's children ...

    :Hug:

    Missy Are you planning on creating another thread when you start? The thread that you started with already has a ton of postings. Maybe if you started a new thread and put the fab requirements and then cutting directions with a great big
    DO NOT COMMENT ON THIS THREAD, it would keep the comments down. Then start another thread strictly for questions, comments and show and tell. You could put the link to that thread on the direction page itself. Just a thought to make things easier. I can't wait :)

    Missy, I couldn't possibly be looking at your quilt, I am no where near California :!: :mrgreen:

    Did everyone see the revised cutting directions on page 4 here http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-82205-4.htm

    Missy, perhaps you can ask Patrice to delete the old file for you so one would get confused

    :XD:
