Oh such pretty choices! No cutting or sewing for me till Tuesday at the earliest. Oh and I dropped off a few turkey legs for your enjoyment since you didn't get to come to Faire.

(My quilt will be 96 X 96) Thought I would start out by making 150.

I'm aiming for 72" x 84." I made 96 HSTs, but it is entirely possible that my math is off!

Angelia: Thanks for your calculations, its far more likely its my math. Not only that but it doesn't take into account that there will probably be borders which would lessen the number even more. Unless Judy tells me otherwise I am going to start with a lesser amount. I can always go back and make more. Everyone's colors are so beautiful and now that they are becoming real eye candy. Betty your first combination reminds be of the way the trees glow against a autumn sky. Going to be lovely.

I'm curious, as so many of us are! How many of the 1/2 sq triangles are you making? and I also vote for cream.
