Randi at i have to say is hosting a fun quilt along that she is calling "On the Road to Spring". We just started cutting this week so it is not too late to join. Look at all the fun fabrics people have posted on the flicker group!
I decided to make two quilts. The first of going to be with a combo of Sandy Henderson Meadow Sweet and Farmers Market. The quilt along will be aprox 50 x 60 but I decided to make mine larger, aprox 60 x 80.
The second one I am going to make a smaller child sized, 40 x 45. Its going to be from the stash I have collected from the Katie Jump Rope line by Denyse Schmidt. I got those pieces all cut yesterday.
Anyone else in this quilt-along? I made an excel spread sheet to calculate how many blocks should be cut for this quilt if you want to make different sizes. If you are in the quilt along and want to use it please ask in a comment and I will email it.
Remember to leave a comment for an entry in the February Giveaway!

ReplyDeleteYes, I'm in the quilt-along and would love to have you email me your spreadsheet. My quilt will be for a twin and probably similar to the size you're doing. Thanks a lot! (debgiro at wildblue dot net)
