    This is really cute. Does it tell how big it will be and I just missed it?

    Well - she does give the numbers but I don't think she gives the size. I suppose we could ask her. I'll see if I can find out.

    That is really cute but I have another suggestion to make it even easier. Instead of cutting the cream or white into pieces just make it long strips. Why piece if you don't have to.

    That's what I was thinking? I would never do it like that..to much work!

    That is a very good idea. Then would you just sew the colored squares together to make a strip and then sew that strip to the cream colored long continuous strip? Makes much more sense.

    It says 76x90, larger than a twin but smaller than a full. Would be easy to add rows. I saw this before and thought it looked fun. I have a bunch of jelly rolls that could be used.

    I wondered about cutting the cream also. I don't like to work any harder than necessary!

    Thank you. I looked, but wasn't in the mood to read through all of the directions.

    I was curious as to why she didn't use strips. I went back and read on Jessie's blog that she did it with squares because she wanted to practice matching seams.
