let me know if you need more info.
You'll need roughly 28" of each color you'll be using for your inner blocks. Then cut that into 3.5"x wof (40") strips
For the center of the block you would take one color of each fabric and sew, then sew an alternate strip. You'll do this for each color combo. Then cut those into sub cuts of 13-3.5". (You'll need to use one full strip and a partial of another.)
This should measure 9.5", you'll then cut into the remaining strips for 26-9.5" Sew two 9.5" pieces to the sides of the 3.5" cut pieces.
6" fabric for the inner border cut into 1.5" strips
18" fabric for the outer border cut into 4.5" strips
On my previous post I said it was 5 blocks across and 6 blocks down, but it should be 5 and 5. Sorry for the confusion.
I hope this helps. I use my Accuquilt studio so I make my quilts to the dies I have, I'm pretty lazy and don't follow patterns only look at pics! Let me know if you need more info.

Awww -he's a doll! Love his little icecream face.
Your quilt is so cute and cuddly - how could he resist? Love your pattern and fabric.
I was curious about what you used for your backing too - What is minky? and is that what you used?

I used Minky, a soft plush fabric. I use Minky for most of my baby quilts, I just wish they made it wider than 60" so I wouldn't have to piece it for a bigger quilt. That's on my to-do list!
