We're very grateful to everyone who has taken the time to support it and the students of Virginia Tech. <BR/><BR/>In answer to your question, any 12 inch block will work. 12-1/2 inches refers to the fact that before this block is put into the final quilt, with seam allowances, it will measure 12-1/2 inches.<BR/><BR/>We hope that helps. Also, if you have any other questions, you can email us with this <A HREF="http://www.grandmasatticquilting.com/GuestBook.htm" REL="nofollow">little form</A> here. Just leave your question in our comment box.<BR/><BR/>Grandma RachelGrandma Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07093247558815211890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11936820.post-70724597035089482752007-04-29T08:43:00.000-07:002007-04-29T08:43:00.000-07:00This is a great idea.

I have already had 20-30 women offer to send blocks/batting/backing fabric or to help with assembling and quilting. I didn't put a time frame on it, though, because I didn't want people to feel like they couldn't meet the deadline. Should we combine our efforts? Please email me.<BR/><BR/>Angelina<BR/>a_kendra@yahoo.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11936820.post-20135942357540534062007-04-23T17:36:00.000-07:002007-04-23T17:36:00.000-07:00I think what you are doing is a GREAT idea.
