    Default Square within a square

    To make the square within a square quilt a little bit larger than a twin bed how much fabric would I need for the backing. Inhave the charm pack and jelly roll and I am going to use the collection warmth. I am going to order the cream color in yardage as I cannot get the honeybun in the cream color.

    Grace, use this chart - depends upon the size of the quilt.

    Be warned. I am BORED.
    This could be dangerous.

    When you get cold just go stand in the corner.
    They are usually 90 degrees.

    A giraffe's coffee would be cold by the time it reached the bottom of his throat.
    Ever think about that? No? You only think about yourself??

    I am in the middle of this quilt today myself! It will be queen sized if you have one jelly, one charm, and one honey bun or equivalent fabric. It is in one of the Quilting Quickly magazines and on a video. It goes together so quickly if you sew in strips then cut, like Jenny explains on the video. The magazine tells you to cut all these little strip pieces, but this would be time consuming. I haven't spent a day on it yet, but it is almost done! (and I am a slow poke!) Enjoy and share pics when you are finished!
