I love it. I am always looking for something that will intrigue my 16 year old grandson and I think this will do it. Thanks. Ideas are rolling in my head now. I do see where I would definitely want to be 'super' organized when sewing, cutting and sewing. But, it could be lots of fun. Thanks. :-D

WOW! That is some quilt! Made my eyes roll around in circles. But I do like it.

I love the quilt. Saved the pattern. Want to try it, just not sure when.

I created one which women would look at and see the word
L I F T and according to the article, men would not be able to see the work.

If my math is close to accurate your quilt would require something like 2.08 yards. How far off am I?

I recently made a quilt similar to yours from the Jinny Beyer (Da Vinci free pattern and it was really easy to follow. Great quilt and it really pops.

Great pattern.

I copied the cutting instructions quickly to Excel and boxed each line of the cutting instructions. It made it easier for me to follow. I also added a check box to keep track of where I was. You can copy and paste the chart back into Word.

Rough idea using the keyboard. Excel is much more clear.
