Having pondered the idea for awhile I decided to go with the Alison Glass inspired quilt top - Which I am going to call Split Herringbone Quilt from now on because that's what it reminded me of when I first saw it.
For the last few days I have been figuring out the sizes of everything I need and I came up with this...

| 70''X70'' |
There will be 98 blocks but this is comprised of 23 block designs - I did so many because I wanted it to look as random as possible.
I did the math to work out how much backing fabric I would need - that included lots of swearing, a crap ton of paper and many confused moments but I think I managed it in the end.
My math put it at 3.5 metres (with very little to spare) so hopefully it all works out, we shall see when the fabric arrives in a few days.
