Main fabric squares- 10.5″
Secondary fabric squares- 10.5″
Inner Border- 2.5″
Outer Border- 4.5″
Prairie Points- 2.5″ (You will need roughly around 192 pieces) This is a guesstimate as it depends on how you place your points.
Binding- 2.5″
Backing- 42″ X 52″ – Leave about 6″ on all sides to account for shrinkage during the quilting process. Once finished, trim the quilt down.

PLEASE NOTE: I USED ABOUT 100 PRAIRIE POINTS ON THIS QUILT. THE AMOUNT OF POINTS USED WILL BE DETERMINED BY THE SIZE OF YOUR QUILT AND HOW FAR APART OR CLOSE YOU SPACE THEM.
IN THIS TUTORIAL, I ALSO TEACH YOU HOW TO CONNECT THE BORDERS AND ROWS AS WELL AS ADDING THE PRAIRIE POINT INNER BORDER AND OUTER BORDER.
