Fabric
Requirements
If you do
Fat Quarters – you will want 8 that blend together really well, and one that
contrasts.
For a Patriotic Quilt – you could use 8
different blues and one red
Or 8
Different reds and one white …. You get the idea.
If you do
108 – 5 inch squares – you will want 96 squares that blend and 12 that contrast
·
Background Fabrics:
2 ¾ yards
of background fabrics – This should be a color that makes your FQ’s/Squares
shine
·
Contrast Fabric
7/8 yards
– a contrasting color - needs to
contrast with your background fabric color
You could
use a color that is the same as one of your FQ’s , but it should contrast with
your Background fabrics.
Quilt finishes at 61 x 81 inches
Cutting Step 1:
If you choose
to use Fat Quarters – Cut them up into 108
- 5 inch squares
You can
get 12 * 5 inch squares per fat quarter
And await
Step 1 ;-)
I'm going to buy the fabric and have to be on pause for the cutting until I have a right hand again! lol I'm going to do this, though!
