It is fair to say that the time to plan the size of blocks needed for my ladder quilt would have been before requesting the blocks. I now realise I can only fit a few 12" blocks into the ladder quilt.
I now have a plan and have made two 6" woven stars to add to the blocks sewn by friends, and I need to make four 9" star blocks to complete the project. My plan is to make two Ohio stars and two other stars.
I also have sufficient blocks to make a quilt to donate to Quilts for Care leavers. I have two blocks still to come, and I made one further star to make a 4 by 6 block quilt which fits the charity's guidelines. It would be nice to finish these over the next week, as my next customer quilt is delayed and I'm currently quilting a Halloween quilt for my daughter. Then I might have time to quilt these next. I need to look through my stash of backing fabrics to see if I have anything suitable.
