    Me too, at least that many!! I've taught the class, have also made it rag style by putting a 9 1/2" square backing and a 8 1/2" square piece of cotton batting in between each block, sew an "X" from corner to corner, then sew blocks together with a 1/2" seam allowance.

    It's my favorite pattern, used Mary Englebreit fabrics and made one for each season. Best use of 6 fat quarters ever. I also like to use chenille fabric for the borders and backing with no batting. Nice and cuddly!!

    Love that blue and yellow one.

    Ok, I guess I had better put this on the to get list. If it is as easy as the Turning Twenty is, it should be a breeze.

    I bought the pattern to make it, but now I can't find what I did with the pattern. It's here somewhere.

    Yellow brick road was the very first quilt I ever made and I made it in King size! This was about 8 years ago. Hubby still uses it everyday. It is falling apart now, but that is only because at the time I thought a 1/4 inch seam was very optional (some seams ended up being less than 1/8”!!) But it is a very easy pattern for a beginner and you will love it!

    Cheers!
