The finished blocks measure 4 1/2 inches square. Since there are 8 blocks across and 8 down, the entire quilt is about 36" plus the binding.

    Thank you for your kind words. I am pleased with it too and am now planning quilt #2.

    Turned out great!! Certainly a lot better than my very first which, I too, have hanging in my sewing room to remind me of how far I have come. Love your fabric choices. Keep up the good work.

    Great job - especially for a "first ever quilt." This will most certainly inspire you to keep going. It's very nice!!!
