I wouldn't recommend half size as I have made all the blocks, not the appliqué bits though. They are fine, but I wouldn't want to do smaller. But I don't like tiny, but it would be interesting to watch someone else do it!
I was thinking about the maths for quilt as you go, but the maths for half size would be fun.

I washed my fabric right after I received my kit but I didn't iron it until today. As I was numbering each piece, I realize that I am missing the "tan" fabric from my kit. Has anyone else noticed that this piece is missing from their kit? I'm sure I have some tan fabric that I can substitute, but if someone who DID get the tan piece would please take a close-up picture of it and post, I sure would appreciate it!! I don't need it for month 1, but just want to get prepared.
Thanks.

Ritzy, wouldn't half sized be just as much work? Maybe even more because you have to figure it out? Wow, check out the Y, I can't imagine that half sized!
Anyway, I got the background fabrics ordered from three different shops that have an online presence. I pondered the BlocLoc rulers until I saw the price. I'd love to make this quilt without buying anything else but maybe a bit of fabric here and there, and hope to not buy much more of that until we need backing.
I'll prep the fabrics when they come, ponder the stash, but I still have two borders from 2013 left to do. All the pieces are cut for border 3. Yeah!
I may be delusional, but after 2013, this one looks a bit easier by comparison. That's a good thing!

It would be a good idea if the ones that purchased the kit would double check their fabric. It was brought to my attention by another member that the medium gold fabric states in the instructions that we should have a 1/2 yard piece. She mentioned that she only got a fat quarter. I just came upstairs to start work on my project and double checked my medium gold piece. It also was only a fat quarter. I am hoping that when the shop opens this morning, they can answer my questions about the missing tan fabric plus the smaller piece of medium gold fabric. It would just be a good idea to doublecheck the fabric along with the instructions.

Only when BOM2013 is finished... I'm almost done (85%) on borders 7 and 8, and plan to fuse month 9 this week-end. Hopefully

For those ambitious folks desiring to make the quilt half size, I wanted to let you know that the representative from Bloc Loc (970-635-3005) told me this morning that you can buy the rulers needed to make it "half size." I would think that would be really helpful since you are looking at such tiny geese. I think a half inch by 1 inch flying geese would be just adorable and oh so precious, but accuracy will need to be spot on I would think.
Also, she told me that TQS is selling the complete set of rulers needed if you plan on making the quilt in the size Janet designed it as.
