Hello Bobbie Sew More, Thank you for your post. I am wondering if I have bitten off more th an I should have with the Squash Blossom quilt pattern. I still have to as semble some of the blocks and still have three more triangle(pyramids)rows to assemble. I plan on taking my time because pattern is hard for me but if I take it slow and do just a little at a time I will not get over whelmed by it all. I would not recommend this pattern for a beginner.

I stick to the most simple quilt patterns and have not had the time to make a bed size quilt in a long time. I make the whole cloth quilts for children in the family---the lap size quilts of spiderman, or animals---and back them with fleece. Years ago I made a Quilt as you Go for a full size bed with large scraps---that was the last big quilt I made. My quilts were for family members. Don't know if I will make another bed size quilt as I stay busy with different activities, but if I did it would not be with the small designs----I don't have the patience! Good luck with your quilt!

Just thinking, but if your quilt gets to be too much of a challenge, you might could put the blocks you already finished in the middle and put blocks of colors that go with it as rows of borders to frame the design. Barbara in rainy SC

Hello Barbara I do like a challenge and because I had that American Indian print want ed to make this quilt. Didn't realize just how hard it was until I got int o making the pieces up. When I started assembling it, found that the hourg lass pieces were too short by 2/8's of an inch, so had to redo all twenty o f those. I had to use 4-3/8's instead of 4-1/4 inches. Now that this hurdle is over and can take my time assembling the top. I do like your idea you gave me and if it gets too complicated in assem bling it I may take your advice. Thank you for your thoughts. Sandy$ in Idaho

Hello Brian, I stay away from Chocolate because it has a drug in it making me hyppe r(?) active. Seem to be real sensitive to it. Hope you start another quilt soon. Sandy$
