Lovely. Did you use the full 5" square in the 4 patch or did you cut it down? I have so many charm packs and this would be a great way to use them up. Thanks for any information. BrendaK

Oh how wonderful! You color scheme is very enticing to me...very happy looking. I have 12 packs of mini charms all from the same line, probably not enough to do this with though. But if gives me an idea!

It may be your first/last bed size quilt but it is a winner.

Blue, yellow, and white always look nice together.

Sometimes a project just takes on a life of its own!

. Since most of the charm squares had pinked edges, I first cut down to 4 inches using a Marti Mitchell template. Then I sewed each square to a white square and sewed on two edges, then cut in half, put the two halves together and again sewed on two edges, then cut again to make two four patches. Most of the sashings and cornerstones were strip pieced and subcut into 1 & 1/2" strips.
