I wanted to do a Baltimore, and after several books, and other searches, I printed out this pattern for the center and corner blocks, taped them together, and liked them. I have now selected the fabrics and have been tracing pattern pieces. I have read all of the posts I think, but I did not see the measurements for the finished quilt. It looks to add up to appx 90" X 90" with sashing and borders. Am I even close? -- Also, thanks for your efforts and assistance.

Beautiful Poker, love the purple.

Hi Debby, glad you decided to join in, the quilt currently will finish up about 60" square, but you can add more blocks to make it bigger. Let me know what size you are looking for and I can do some other blocks for you to add.
The fabrics listed are for this size quilt, so if you are going to make it bigger, be sure to order more fabric.

:lol:

If it finishes up at 60", then, is the border shown not included? I like the applique of flowers around the squares and was planning to scallop the edge. My progress has been slow. I changed my fabric selection for the stems and leaves, and am ready to cut now.

the borders are: inside border is 4" wide, outside border is 6" on the current photo, they can both be made wider to make the quilt bigger. Say in inside border can be 8" and the outside border 12". If you add another round of 12" blocks you can come to 72", appx. I'll run it on EQ later when I'm in my studio and let you know. What size do you want to come to?

I must be doing something wrong. I can see the picture of the second block which are the corner ones, but all I get in the instructions are a few lines, but no pattern. Maybe I don't understand how this works. Thanks for your help it looks beautiful. Gidget

You all are doing a great job on these blocks. I'll get started maybe this weekend if I can get far enough on the Relay for Life quilt I promised to make.

I got some new batiks at the Glendale Quilt Guild Show last weekend, and am planning on using some of them in this quilt, also.

Hi Peg...I would like that, too. I would like the quilt to end up about 85x85 or 90x90. Maybe another swag border added in there somewhere? :-) You're the best!!

One of the great things about this is you can jump in when you can and work at your own pace. Can't wait to how you use the batik. Relay for Life is more important. :)
