Thanks for your comment. Don't forget to share!

Glad you had display of plan.

I just hope I can learn how to do this one!! Its beautiful.

I have started to cut this quilt out and when I cut Fabric A and and Fabric B , then told to cut these two fabrics into squares, (60 each). I cannot get 60 out of each only 30. 8 inches wide x WOF only gives you 6 strip x 5 squares per strip=30. WHAT AM I DOING WRONG?

I think you must have misread the instructions. The strips should be cut 4 7/8" x WOF. :-)

I really like this quilt! Have to make this one.
