Thread: tutorial for adding sashing to tumbler blocks

I used a Christmas layer cake and charm pack and made one. I did not sash it and found that alternating the pressed seams and a glue stick worked the best for me to match seams. I don't know how to post a photo or I would show it. I just cut another set to do the second one. It is easy (I thought) and goes together quickly. Then I had some jelly roll strips that were red with gold stripe and green with gold stripe and I alternated those for the binding using a variegated red and green thread as I cannot hand sew so I always used a decorative stitch on the front when I machine sew it. It washed beautifully as I wanted to make sure the glue was removed.
