This afternoon, I finished it to the flimsy stage.<\/p>\n<p>The quilt is from Debbie Mumm&#8217;s website and is called, Building Blocks. Debbie&#8217;s pattern was crib size and I wanted something larger so I added blocks and a row of sashing across the top of the quilt and down the side. My quilt measures 52 1\/2 &#8221; x 77&#8243; before quilting.
