And then in the cutting instructions, it says to cut them to 5" strips. HOWEVER, I do have an updated version of that quilt tutorial in this blog post:http://www.gigisthimble.com/2022/11/a-simple-charm-quilt-tutorial-20.html. It includes a reference sheet with details for a bunch of different quilt sizes, using different cuts of fabric, different backing widths, etc.! I hope you'll check it out!Gigi's Thimblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02104714701161170769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4111251612193454477.post-70971975362775587162023-12-28T17:50:15.152-07:002023-12-28T17:50:15.152-07:00Love this quilt.

In the cutting instructions, if you are using yardage, it says to cut 3 different dark 6" x width of fabric (WOF) strips. Should this be 5" x width of fabric? Please let me know. Thank you for posting this lovely quilt.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4111251612193454477.post-71079602506460391972020-10-16T14:10:30.726-06:002020-10-16T14:10:30.726-06:00I always use 100% cotton batting :)I always use 100% cotton batting :)Gigi's Thimblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02104714701161170769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4111251612193454477.post-80066560012157710062020-10-08T06:56:00.845-06:002020-10-08T06:56:00.845-06:00Lovit!
