I found the pattern at the site indicated - www.ericas.com
and I just typed in the little space on the upper left hand corner Think Outside the Box - All the quilt patterns came up, and Think outside the Box is there, down a ways - nearly to the end.

just bought this pattern from Toadusew for my 13 yo for a 4-H project. The pattern is 1.5 inches strips. 2.5 strips would be easier but I don't know how much fabric to buy. The math of quilting kills me sometimes. How do you all convert patterns so you know what to buy and cut?

EQ....but if the pattern calls for 1.5" strips then see what yardage it requires..now double that since with 2.5" strips you will not only be using wider strips, but will also need Longer ones...

The visual really helps!

then I must be dummer than I thought. I just sent for the pattern and hopefully it will show me how to lay it out. :oops:
