How big were your strips? they look a bigger than my 2" ones and my queen size will have 40 of the big blocks, mine are 5". I'll have to find some celtic designs since this is for my FIL. All I have is girly stuff!

Finished strip size is 2". Each small block is 2x2. Notice the small block pattern is 7 squares by 7 squares. Different from some double Irish Chains of 5x5 squares blocks....
The large blocks are 10x10 with a 2 inch border around them (includes the last 4 blocks of the design. So each "block" is 14x14. There are 30 blocks, 5x6 for a queen sized quilt.

I can't wait to see your Triple.

tim

kathy and i have checked and realized you haven't given yourself full credit, Tim. yours is also a triple chain.

i guess that means mine will have to be a king quadruple ... or a california king quintuple if i want to attempt to out-do you ... or anybody who even thinks they stand a chance to out-do yours.

rats!!! :shock:

the competetive spirit is costly ... ain't it? :lol:

BEAUTIFUL! You can't go wrong with blue and white in my book. You should be proud.
