kewl I was thinking oranges, I have a large floral pattern in orange and yellow, & Im thinking a crib size (that would be about the same as a lap quilt I think)
Yes Shortn'Sweet. You can do it control scrappy too. If you pick say color 1 as a green... stay in greens that way when the pattern is done it'll look nice.

Big print column means that is how many blocks that have big print in that size of quilt.

Hi mysikaanne- please explain what the numbers under the column "Big Print" mean, please? Are they the size, or what? Sorry I am being dense tonight...[/quote]

I believe those numbers are for how many blocks of the Big Print on the finished quilt size of your choice
ie: I chose Crib , so there will be 5 blocks of the big print on mine
