    The carpenters star ended up being 85" square. I kept adding so it would cover my husband when he was stretched out on the couch. It turned out so much better than I thought it would.

    I love working with flannel. It is so comforting. I got some a few years ago at my lqs and it gets softer with each washing and does not wear out. There is just something about snuggeling under a flannel quilt when it is cold.

    They're all beautiful, and you've found such lovely pieces of flannel. Did you use a batting, or just flannel front and back?

    I have made 3 quilts from this pattern book. If you look on the web the queen size sells for $560. I gave a class to beginners and they all were able to complete this with little or no trouble but it looks so hard.

    Yes, I always wash flannel, as it shrinks a lot.

    I used batting to give them stability and will be heavier and cozier when covering up on a cold night.
