I am a little confused. Your first instructions said that the original quilt would be 3 inch squares while the queen size would be 5 inch squares. Does that not apply to the first cuttings?

~~Did my second paragraph not come through? Or did my butterfly brain forget to mention it?~~ Yep, butterfly brain. Thanks for catching that. I'll modify that post. The squares for the queen size should be cut at 5 1/2 inches. You will need 42 squares of your light fabric #1, 28 squares of fabric #2 and 4 squares of fabric #4.

Happy to report I just finished cutting my 3-1/2 squares. Then I have to look for an empty container. Success...but it was not easy and I am sure you know why. Lol.

stay safe and healthy.

They're all full of UFOs? That's why I didn't start this mystery earlier. I had to finish several UFOs to have a drawer to put it in! (Just before quarantine started, I gave my daughter the treadle machine I can't use any more, bought several multi-drawer plastic storage units to put in its place in the studio, and transferred all of the UFOs into them from their various boxes and bags. New rule is I can't start anything new if there is no drawer to put it in!)
