BMW Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 I have 10 jungle squares.... and 15 checked squares and I can make as many solid colored squares to add in for the top... I am having a hard time planning how to lay out the 10 and 15 (can be 9 and 14 or whatever)... Anyone want to help take a stab at it? Thanks!!

PrairieSong Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Could you post photos of your squares? That would help. I clicked on your blog and scrolled down to the bottom of the front page. I saw beautiful children and gorgeous vistas, but no quilt. Is it there somewhere, or could you post pics here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1bassoon Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 When I plan out, I lay my squares on a flannel-backed tablecloth; that helps me to visualize better. How about cut out solid color squares of paper, and lay them out on a table of floor somewhere? You can also take a picture of that configuration; I do that, then somehow looking at it on my computer helps me to see it better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BMW Posted July 8, 2012 Author Share Posted July 8, 2012 I am using leftovers/scraps from the nursery set that I made for my grandson... http://mytripleo.blogspot.com/2011/11/nursery-is-done.html Basically, the material is leftover from the curtains/crib skirt... jungle print, cut into about 5-6 in squares... and green/white checked cut in squares to match... and I have a lot of cream.... I am making a simple quilt for a friend who is having a baby boy... money is tight, so I would like to make something using what I have on hand. I plan on the back of the quilt being the green/white checked material (because that's my large piece!)... it fits 5 squares across and 5 top to bottom... I can make it 4 by 5 if that works out better... or 5 by 5.... Thanks again!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
