Oops! Just when I get busy with things at school, I get a ton of traffic on this site. Somehow I kept forgetting to check in on things and there are several questions I need to answer…

Machine or hand pieced/quilted?

The Single Girl quilt was machine pieced and machine quilted on my Janome.

How big are the blocks?

As far as answering the question about how big the blocks are… I actually don’t know. The quilt is on the other side of Missouri now. I do know that I trimmed a small amount off after I had sewn on the outside (curved) white piece. Maybe 1/8 to 1/4 of an inch total from the length/width, just to make them perfect squares.

Where did I find the pattern?

I found the pattern at a local shop, and know that you can find it in many online stores, too. Google Denyse Schmidt Single Girl pattern.

I promise that the quilt isn’t as intimidating as it looks! I had the pattern for almost a year before I decided to jump on in. Once I did, it was so worth it.

    I really like your quilts! Have you ever finished your Jewel Squares baby quilt…it looked time intensive but beautiful! I would love to see the finished results.

    I’m so glad to hear that this quilt is easier than it looks. I have had the pattern for a while, and even the “Katie Jump Rope” ready to go. Pottery Barn has it listed in their new catalog. Congrats on a great quilt!
