    This is wonderful! Thank you so much. It's difficult for me to do the math anymore with the tumors, so I usually have to skip these types of quilts. But now, you've given me something I can refer back to for seveal different patterns! It is very much appreicated :)

    I think it would be cool to cut scraps from the making of a quilt into strips of some selected size and just keep sewing them together after each quilt keeping track of how long it is becoming and the goal length you need. What a scrappy quilt and no thinking involved (after the math!). Then you have a pictorial of all the quilts you have made.

    That is a great idea!! You could pin a piece of paper on the end after you add scraps each time to say how long it is, so it wouldn't be too hard to keep track :)

    Good idea! I'll remember that. I'm planning on teaching my grand daughter to sew when she stays with me this summer. Maybe this would be a good project for her. She has never used a sewing machine before. Small pieces and short seams with a long result will give she a sense of accomplishment and make a quick small quilt. Maybe we'll make a doll blanket quilt!

    You're very welcome!! This is a super fun quilt to make. I'd love to hear how it turns out if you give it a try.

    Cheers!
