    O please post your top here...I love it. I am going to put this one into my EQ 6 program. I like the design and since you used larger blocks, it shouldn't take too long to do!

    Really like your quilt pattern and am looking forward to seeing the finished quilt.

    And it is not the senior moments that get me down but the senior hours! (At least they're not senior days yet!)

    Love the simplicity of your blocks. I am thinking of making it in Christmas fabric. Maybe fussy cutting the large square. Look forward to seeing a finish to your top. You are a very generous person to have made so many Linus quilts.

    Here is the finished top. It still needs to be quilted. There are 13 of the 8" Minnie Mouse blocks. The arrow blocks were done using the method to get 8 blocks from 2 large pieces. I started with 10" blocks using the math I had read, but next time I will add an extra .5" to give me a little bit more fudge room. I used the red polka dot to match Minnie's dress. I was originally going to match that with a tone on tone white! but the contrast was too much. I think the pale pink goes better with the red. I added a 4" border. Finished size after quilting should be about 47" square. I have about 16 extra HST which I will use to piece together the backing fabric.

    Enjoy! Now to pick out some boy fabric to make another one.

    Go back in your history and see where you have been... I have had to do that many times....

I would google it. How do I arrange the remaining pink blocks?



    HELP!!!!!
