My Doodle
 

Here is an idea I drew out this morning. I hope you can see this since I did this in pencil. Anyway each square on the graph is 5" making the finished product 140" X 150". So that turns out to be an odd size. Any suggestions for changes, additions so that I could turn this into a bed quilt?

I think your last two outside flying geese or HST are off. You have them the height of the blocks less than the width of the blocks. This quilt will be square. What size do you want the final size of the quilt to be?? You center block is 20". You can adjust that size to get the outside dimension you seek to make this quilt.

Wow! 140' x 150"? That's one big quilt! Really neat pattern! Looking forward to seeing it completed!

I wanted to end up with a queen size quit. You mention the flying geese are off please explain. Does the height and width have to be the same? How do you suggest adjusting the center to end up with a queen size quilt?

Why don't you just use 3" squares? this makes it 84X90. If you want it bigger, add one or two borders.
Flying geese are twice as wide as they are high. the 2 innermost are correct: 1X2 and 2X4. The ones in the two most outer rings are the wrong proportion. The 3rd row out needs to be an additional square wider so the geese are 4X8. and the final star row needs to be 2 squares wider. The angles you have drawn for these 2 rings will be more difficult to duplicate.

Duh, thanks for the great suggestion. Jus could not see that for some reason. :)

I just drew the quilt design using EQ7 but the final border need to be 24" wide and the program only allows a maximum of 20". So the final row of HST will look a little wonky.

I started with a 12" center Sawtooth block.
Since that is composed of 3" blocks, then the next row is 6"
The row after that is 12" and the final row is 24"

That should give you a quilt 96" square. Hope this helps you.

ManiacQuilter2...Thanks so much for doing the drawing for me. This helps so much! :)

Wow...board members, you did it again !!!!!!

Well, I like your interpretation of this pattern. There is nothing 'wrong' just different. Go with you heart. It is your new design, and I like it.

I am making this quilt right now!!!!!! Mine is 96" square just like the one that ManiacQuilter2 drew out. Also, you can make two more stars inside of the center one, my first star is 3" square and the second one 6" square, it was fun to make the small blocks.

Here is a hint: it is fine to make the "teeth" with flying geese in the beginning, but for the outer 1 or 2 stars it is better to use the half square triangles because you waste a lot less fabric that way. The outer triangles are huge...

And here I thought that I was so original with this idea! :)

Amazing doodle, go for it. ManiacQuilter2 has done a fantastic job for you. I agree that 140 by 150 is a tad large, but for our bed I would want 100 x 120 and I love your idea. If you decide to draw up the pattern let us know as I, for one, would consider purchasing it from you.

+To make a king sized quilt, you could make each square in the grid equal to 3 inches. This should cover the top of the bed and with multiple borders would easily make a king-sized quilt. Two inch squares with borders would make the width for a queen sized bed but would need some extra rows on top and bottom for length.

Ditto. Bottom not lining up with top.

How are you ever going to quilt something that big???? It will not fit any long arm frames. That is huge! I would change the size of your blocks to create something a bit closer to a size that would fit a bed. And of course it does not have to be square.... Many quilts are rectangular.
