Are you getting excited about the QOV Challenge? I have already started thinking about possible quilt layouts. There are minimum and maximum sizes listed in the guidelines, so I pulled out my trusty EQ7 and started playing around. The minimum and maximum sizes for the quilts are:
Minimum Size: 55 x 65 inches
Maximum Size: 72 x 90 inches
Points for the Challenge giveaways are awarded by points calculated based on a 12 inch finished block size. The reason for that is that if you don’t make a complete quilt top, you may still enter by submitting quilt block(s) that are 12-1/2 inches unfinished. If you are making a complete quilt top or finished quilt, it can be made with any size block you choose.
Here are some possibilities if you choose to make 12 inch finished blocks.


I am looking forward to this. I’m looking through blocks and fabric I have here to see what will be the next one I do!
the first layout (5×6) calculates out to 74″ wide. Doesn’t that exceed the maximum size? Just wondering.
You’re right, the maximum width is 72″. I should change that to a 2 inch border.
