Topic: monthly official size (2/2) - The Quilt Show Forum

Welcome, Guest

Join us on a new 12-month quilting journey as we bring you a fabulous quilt designed especially for TQS by Sarah Vedeler. Sedona Star is a spectacular medallion quilt that features a beautiful center star surrounded by a charming array of appliqué elements.

Each month we will provide a photo and detailed directions for a portion of the quilt, as well as full-size patterns. Sedona Star finishes at approximately 88” x 88” inches. One version features a total of sixteen different print fabrics, including colorful shades of blue, pink, purple, yellow, red and gold; however, Sarah is providing another alternative color option and instructions for each month as well. Fabric kits for both colorways area available in limited quantities through the TQS Shoppe.

Reetzbobeetz OFFLINE Posts: 4193 Thank you received: 209	I think it would be helpful to have a finished size for the diameter of this months' circle. Sue Garman's instructions were always so clear that way so that you always knew what size you should end up with at the end of each month. Rita.

I have a small request if it is possible. Since we are working with circles and bias and building a quilt literally from the inside out. With each monthly installment could we also have listed the finished or unfinished size we should expect as a check and balance to insure proper sewing and things fitting ? If I've sewn a month wrong it would be nice to find out that month then two or three months down the road.
Thank you so very much if this is possible
