I want to make a full bed size quilt for a friend for Christmas. I want to make it in patches 5" squares. How many squares will I need?
Is there any formula for working out the information for different bed sizes? Thank you!

to make a full quilt 81x96 with a 2" and a 6" border, you would need, with 5" finished sqares [cut 5.5"] 13 sq across and 16 sq down or 208 squares. if the sq start as 5" and finish to 4.5, you would need 15x18=270 sqs but reduce the outer border to 5"
