    Default French Braid/Friendship Quilt Calculation

    I would like to make a French braid quilt.

    I have 12 fat quarters (2 x 6 patterns). If I cut each fat quarter into 21 pieces - 2.5 inches by 7 inches - I will get a total of 252 pieces.

    Could some clever quilter give me an approximate idea of the size quilt this will make?

    Many thanks!

    There is a tutorial on this board by a member. I have made several form this. I think you just have to make them until you get the size you want. I do and use any leftovers for other patterns. Easier for me.
