THREE DUDES QUILT
To Be Taught by Suzanne Shelton
Size: (As shown) 62-1/2” x 62-1/2”
The beauty of 3 Dudes is you can make whatever size quilt you want from 2-1/2” strips.
If you want to use a jelly roll you can make a good size throw or a baby quilt.
If you use half a jelly roll or (20) 2-1/2” strips you can do a table mat or runners.
If you just have 2-1/2” strips that you have cut you can make whatever size.
The height of your strip set determines the size of your blocks.
