    I interpreted the size as a 12" square, quilted block on a 14" backing (1" extended backing on all sides), with a green backing, signed on the back and mailed to Lori to be sewn together.

    Any size will work, as long as we all make the same size block.

    Yahoo! We have a unified size & backing theme! I think it's all very clear now. It will be really fun to see how this turns out.

    I am assuming the same thing. After reading all posts and watching the tutorial, that is what I think Krystyna is saying, please verify so we all get it correct.

    We should set a date as to when the blocks need to be completed and mailed to Lori. I am a procrastinator, so a deadline helps.
