Got the blocks all together. The blocks are 6 1/2 inches and the sashing is 2 1/2 so at 7 x 7 I used 49 of the 50 blocks.
Final dimensions are 58 x 58. Square....harumph.
Actually I miscounted and had two left over. No matter what I used all but about 11 blocks.
9 were more pink than anything so I can use them in a baby quilt for Carrie's friends.
If anyone ever has a girl!
I will look for a back over the weekend and get it on the long arm frame!
Good to clear out that space! I think it looks cool!

That looks like a nice sized quilt. What did the final dimensions work out to be?
ReplyDeleteI am so impressed ! When you set your mind to something you really get it done. Looks really good
ReplyDeleteIt came out looking like cut glass thru a kaleidoscope. Count your blessings you invested in a long arm to quilt it!! I am wishing we were closer and you'd quilt some of mine too! My MIL got a long arm and never uses it, can't get the tension right. I wondered how she stands up to it as she's about 5 feet tall. I'll bet you get a lot more finished because of having it, and not facing the push and pull of a big quilt in a little machine bed.
