Not sure how lucky I am, lol! It is a tesslelatting quilt design, but, 100 4-in blocks, making up 25-12 inch blocks! I spend till now, mostly, since Father's Day weekend, working on this quilt. Alot of work for a baby quilt, & it will probably be a one of a kind one at that, lol. I do like how it turned out though, but am sure glad it's done now, lol.

Wow, what a great pattern! It looks like it was a real bear to put together, though! Have you considered copywriting and selling it? I think many would be interested.

Just my fat eighth,

Very nice, but it really does look like it would be a pain to put together, alot of seams to match.

My husband has thought of selling it, if interested, you can send me a private message here. I made a mistake in telling about this quilt. You end up with 25 blocks, which are four of the small blocks to make one, so they end up as 8in blocks, not 12in. It was a pain in patootie alright, & it may well be a one & only. To each his own, lol, but it does look neat all done....I told my husband no more quilting designing, I will do my own, thank you, lol! At least not paper piece ones anyway. I can see parts of this done, with some other solid blocks mixed in, or other kinds of blocks, but not solid pp, ugh! Thanks for all your lovely comments!
