I googled and found your nice post re the dimensions.. Thanks so much.

Those numbers are going into my important file. Thanks for figuring all that for us.<br /> <br />I appreciate seeing the three versions side by side. The little dividing squares don't show up as much as I thought they would--just a gentle separation.Vivianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04255216150275846123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4049103935243328127.post-34701201298056928402011-07-22T06:15:08.146-05:002011-07-22T06:15:08.146-05:00Thanks a bunch!Thanks a bunch!The Calico Cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06319271181930512880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4049103935243328127.post-17538521385382844172011-07-21T19:57:39.610-05:002011-07-21T19:57:39.610-05:00Thanks, Wanda.

My first had more than 40 strips in the jelly roll so it was wider than longer if I held it so the strips went across. It became longer than wider when I held the quilt with the strips going up and down. My second one was 40 strips and was smaller.Purple Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09614300010193583324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4049103935243328127.post-28637171036026756152011-07-21T13:14:24.728-05:002011-07-21T13:14:24.728-05:00You're a much better man than me.

Your formula will make it easier to plan one of these out...rather than my sew till it is big enough technique. Thanks.Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14418828972427644899noreply@blogger.com
