    I made mine 3 1/2 inch squares.. 3 inch finished When all done, the block is 8 inch square.

    that seems like a nice size block. How big was your quilt in the end??? how many blocks?

    The colors are so nice and soft! You are sooo good at picking out colors. I'm still blown away by your Dresden Plate quilt. Thanks for posting pics of how to make the 9 patch. Took me a while to get the concept too!

    I must have been having a blonde moment again, because I had to read all the pages of this post and NOW I finally get it! :oops: I understand the "dissapearing patch" now. :lol:

    gcathie, you sure do give good tutes, I was just in a cloud before.

    Really like how you made the nine patch with just 2 colors and then mixed them all up......The quilt looks fantastic! Thanks for sharing. PS I'm cutting one out for a christmas gift. So easy to do.

    If I were to make it in say 4 colors, how much fabric would I need for a 12 block and an overall quilt of 50 X 60 (with out the border).

    Is there a block pattern out there somewhere I can use in my EQ5 software?
