Giant Scrappy Swoon Quilt Along
#251

40 bazillion of each should do the trick! LOL
Actually, based on Jennifer's (Hopeful Homemaker) calculations and depending on how you make your HST's you would need approximately:
BACKGROUND: 192 3 1/2" squares and 42 3 7/8 squares for HST's. Personally, I use 21 4" squares and make 2 HST's at a time but please do whatever method works for you! ((or 8 FQ's))
PRIMARY: 132 3 1/2" squares and 36 – 3 7/8 inch squares for the HST's (or 18 4" squares). ((or 7 FQ's))
SECONDARY: 168 3 1/2" squares and 30 3 7/8" squares (or 15 4" squares) for the HST's. ((or 8 FQ's))
Hope that helps - - -

I finally got caught up on step 3. I didn't have enough red or pink scraps to do scrappy, so I decided to use one certain fabric for the secondary fabric. It's a pink with a daisy print on it. I fell in love with it, and I wanted to use it, so here is a good place to do so. This is such a fun sew-along!

Isn't it interesting how differently we approach our projects??? No right or wrong, just different. Some will cut everything then start sewing and some, like me, will use what I call the 'Music Man' approach; cut-a-little, sew-a-little, cut-a-little, sew-a-little, piece, piece, piece, piece - - -

Thanks to you Jane, this is a very fun and doable project. I'm just amazed that it's turning out as large as it is!
Thanks givio, I think it's such a pretty piece that I wish I had several more yards of it! I do believe that I'd use a little of it in everything I make.....
