And On To The Layout

After a quick bit of research the internet appears to agree that a kiddie quilt should be somewhere in the region of 48" x 64". The quilt i'm copy-catting had a 5x7 construction (I think) but this will wind up a bit big with my blocks so I'm cutting it down to a 3x5. This will make the main patchwork bit 36" x 60" (8" star + 2" borders = 12" block) and once I've thrown in some borders should come to 44" x 68" which seems pretty reasonable to me.

The images by the way are made using Quilt Assistant which is a totally free piece of software that lets you draft out quilt blocks.
