Double(Full) Size

I stumbled across this block back this summer and decided to try this pattern as my first ever quilt. I made a double or full sized quilt and it turned out beautifully. My blocks were a bit smaller, only 10", so to do a full size I made 35 blocks (7X5) and added a 4" border. I used 4 patterned fabrics plus the white and border. I had 1 yard of each pattern plus 2.5 yards of the border fabric and 3 yards of white. There was some leftover in the end but I was happy to have the extra in case I messed up! The way I determined how much I needed was to find the size of a double mattress and added the amount I wanted for overhang and worked out how many 10" squares I would need to get to that size.

Response to King Size question

For the Fujita Maze bed quilt patterned in the March/April 2013 issue of McCall's Quilting, adding 1 row of blocks to one side would yield a quilt 102 1/2" x 88 1/2", which would allow for a 13 1/4" drop on each side of a king mattress, and an 8 1/2" drop at the bottom. Remember to add 14 1/2" to the cutting length of each longer side border!

Response to Twin Size question

Hello, We are unable to provide a pattern for an alternate size of this Fujita Maze quilt. However, by omitting 2 rows of blocks, you would end up with a 60 1/2" x 88 1/2" quilt, which would fit nicely on a twin mattress, allowing for a 10 3/4" drop on each side and a 13 1/2" drop at the end of the bed.
