Wow, lots of activity in the 24 hours since I last visited! Welcome back to many new faces, and also love seeing al the new gals, too.

Those who want to makr a large bed quilt: This unit I am giving instructions for make a top of 44" x 58". I've done a rough count if you have the newer thick mattresses, allowing a minimum 16" drop. So if you make 6 units (that would be 72 4-patch blocks) you will have more than enough for a king with a few leftovers, and maybe 5 units (60 4-patch) for a queen and also a few left over. I'll have some suggestions at the final week to let you know how I would assemble the blocks into these sizes as there will be some differences in your cutting for the final step.

Also, if you are on AOL, you can bookmark this thread into your "favorites" column or put on the top too bar to find it easily.

Oh, I'm so in! New for me but what fun! Have a bunch of whimsical/kids fat quarters and scraps. I have been wanting to use them for ages. Double or nothing, lol! Left some chips and salsa in the club car.

I'm hang gliding in on the roof of the club car, brownies in hand. Now that I have caught up to you all, i'll sit & enjoy the snacks for a while.

Mama hen I notice several of your squares are the same fabric as mine. Great minds.......and all that.lol

Think that means we have been keeping all our scrapes for years, now is the time to use them up or toss. I found a great way to keep my scraps in order. Was tired of them all thrown together in one big container, so bought these & labeled them, then sorted my scrapes. Makes it way easier to pick from these and easy to see what is light & dark.
See next entry. won't let me put picture in here.

MamaHen

Here it is I hope.

mama those look more like usable hunks! LOL

I throw scraps in a big box, then when the mood strikes and don't feel like sewing, I cut into sizes I use the most, which are 3-1/2" and 4-1/2" squares and 1-1/2" and 2-1/2" wide strips.

Judy, you mentioned about posting the next clue Friday-perfect for me.

Grammahunt I think my blocks are very dark, but I decided with them being so dark I could use lights that aren't real light

Jillmc I LOVE log cabin patterns and perfect to use our stash. Is the Kentucky log cabin different from the orginal ones we usually make?
