Note: It would probably be a good idea to play around with how much information you can place on the quilt without urban sprawl. The text size remains the same so it may appear no text is on the quilt when the blocks are reduced in size. Of course this is an advantage as it might not spoil the beauty of your quilt when in normal size but if needed the text can be recovered by simply enlarging the quilt. You should also look at type size if you would like to print the quilts out for class use or something similar.
