I have been taking a Quilt as you go class with Judy at City Quilters. The biggest quilt I have made is a twin size one for my son's bed. That was already cumbersome to quilt on my sewing machine so I never tried one bigger. I realized this may allow me to make larger size quilts with my Bernina home sewing machines. The trick is to quilt each block individually with backing and batting already cut. So before starting to sew, you'll need to know exactly what the plan is for your quilt.
Here is the quilt design for this one. The pattern is called Trip Around the World and I decided to use Modern meadow line fabric from Joel Dewberry's collection. I collected the entire line awhile back and was waiting for a good project.
Each block was originally 7" but will be trimmed down to 6.5". The quilt is eventually going to be a throw size quilt which is approximately 60"x60."
