Below is the link for the Baker's Dozen quilt from McCall's.
You may have to fiddle with it - the block centers are 6.5" wide but I was thinking you could make the block centers from 15 of the candy squares - 3 across and 5 down which would be 7.5" wide so you would have to adjust the rest of the measurements - but its a pretty simple pattern. http://www.mccallsquilting.com/conte...er_s_Dozen.pdf

I love the Film at Five and Coins quilts. I am working on a braided one using the 60 degree template that everyone will be getting and I will post pictures. My only puzzlement (and this applies to all patterns with small patches and lots of seams) is how do you quilt them? I am thinking about FMQing up the middle of the braids with some modification of feathers or spirals but I am worried it will be too stiff because of all the seams or worse, too busy.

carrot love your film at five quilt. Makes me want to lock myself in my sewing room and go go go go. But alas I must work to feed my habit and have been busy these last few weeks. Hoping to get in there and do some serious sewing soon.
