    Default Well, I'll be darn.

    The first step in the pattern was to cut 92 green squares -- go across the page and it say size 4 1/2" squares. Fine. I cut the 92 squares 4 1/2" squares. Then I notice the size of 6 1/2" squares. Ugggh, the 4 1/2" squares are for the wallhanging size not the full quilt size I want to make. Oh well, it's a great fun pattern I think I'll make both sizes. It's this one:

    The reverse is the back of Santa.
    Any one made this?

    That is super cute!! A wall hanging will be cute but bummer since that means you'll have to get more fabric... Unless you have it stashed. Lol

    hahah I once cut about 300 60 degree diamonds, when I turned the page of the patternbook it turned out they had to be 45 degrees.....fortunately I had enough fabric.
    Nice pattern and you started well in time with it!!!

    I'm using fabric from my stash. All shades and prints of greens, blues, reds, and I'm adding golds too. What better way to then a rag quilt to use up fabric and these patterns are not boring at all.

    I'm afraid that I'd be thinking a word a bit stronger than "darn."
