One day a week I have an 11 year old girl coming over for sewing lessons. This is her quilt top so far. She picked out the fabric all on her own. It's going to be so cute! The squares are each 6", so the blocks are sewing up into about 17.5". So when the top's done, the quilt blocks will probably be about 17" around. She is very enthusiastic about this project and I'm proud to be her first sewing teacher! (She's also my first sewing student!)
