    Yes, it was for 12 blocks. I actually calculated the 6.5 blocks as 7 inches, the 3.2 blocks as 4 inches, just to give some leeway in case of mistakes. It will come out real close, so you may want to add a bit if you are skittish.

    Thank you Deb! Not skittish here..just want to have enough extra to play with!

    Deb, thanks for posting the link to the pattern. While it is not a difficult one, I think I will watch this swap, rather than join in. What I see so far looks beautiful!!

    I am excited about this block as it has so many possibilities of color! And the fact that it IS SIMPLE, may be a good one to start the new year off with.
