It is about 28 x 52 and is a table runner so I have to keep a leaf in my antique table or it just pops over the edge about an inch. If I was making this for a gift, I would definitely reduce the size as you would need quite a large table for it to work. It actually fit better on the table unquilted :) I would have to run down to "the room" to see the book( I think it is twist and turn), but I followed the pattern with no creativity except using the gorgeous oriental print for the center pieces. I bought 3 yard of it at a show and keep using it over and over for projects. I used it for the backing on this one so if my cowboy husband slops his coffee that isn't supposed to be on there in the first place :), I can flip it over and not hurt him!! Isn't that the way it is when you love a piece of fabric and you dh too? :)Originally Posted by feline fanatic
