    Very nice quilts. Bet your hubby is happy, happy, happy to get his quilt. You did wonderful. I especially like the Americana quilt. Very pretty. Would you share where the pattern can be purchased? I have a bin of RWB fabric.

    Oh my goodness, these are great!!! You (especially you) and your hubby should be soooo proud of your beautiful accomplishments! Your Jeff Gordon quilt immediately brought back fond memories of my Dad who passed away 8 years ago at age 90. He loved Jeff! He and I would watch the races together...special Dad/daughter times!!

    Barb - Feel free to use the idea. The center blocks are 30" x 30" with a 2 1/2" half-square triangle in the center to reduce the bulk of the 24 points meeting in the center. 3" first border / 5" outer border. I'd have to measure the numbers, I don't remember how tall they are. I made them with a piece of large poster board so I know they fit within that size. Have fun! PM if you would like any additional information.

    Hi Jordan, I don't know the name of the pattern. I just took 12 fat quarters, cut it into an 18" (approximately) square then cut it into a nine patch with different angles instead of straight across. Sewed them back together using a 1/2" (cut size 1") strip between each piece, then the same strips as sashing between each block. PM me if I can help you with it.
