I show a beautiful Chrismtas was hanging that was a Whack N Stack. I bought a book but I am still having a problem determining the size of the print in order for the block to come out right. Any suggestions?

Christmas....Noo...Spring...; )

So, I can't write. I saw a beautiful Christmas Wallhanging . . .

Between working full time, back in collage almost full time, working a second job at a fabric shop, plus home responsibility, I will be lucky if I can make the quilt by Christmas. (haha)

Which pattern in the book?

i know what you mean and i am retired LOL

The size of the print isn't as important as the length of the repeat. You want a large scale print with lots of contrast (unless you are making a small block...then you want a smaller print with lots of contrast). Lots of contrast is the key.

To find the repeat, pick a design in the quilt then look for the next identical design going lengthwise down the fabric. Measure the distance between the two designs and that is your repeat. Each pattern will call for a certain number of repeats. There is no set measurement for repeats. They vary from fabric to fabric.

Hope that helps. I know it's confusing.

do a search for the "tutorial by Cutebuns on OBW"...she did a wonderful tut on how to do it...makes it almost easy....good luck
