I am making a pinic quilt. I want to tie it, yet am not really sure how to. Can anyone help.

Thanks

Depending on the size of the squares, I would tie at all 4 corners, then again in the middle.
If it's little pieces, I would tie at an "intersection" about 3-4 inches from each tie.
I use embroidery floss and double it. Just a quick up and down then tie with a square knot. Make sure it's a square knot, so it doesn't come undone. I know of some people who would use a drop of No Fray to make sure the knot was secure. I never used it.

My blocks are made up of four 4inch squares with sashing in between each block. At that size would you tie in the middle or each square and the middle.

How do I make a square knot.

(I told you I have no idea how to do this)

Ok, let me see if I can explain this.
To make a square knot..

Tie like you would start to tie your shoe.

Put left string OVER right string like you would make the first part of a bow.
THEN...
put take the RIGHT string and put it OVER the left side.

Make sense?

Yes, thank you

If you still get stuck, try doing a Google search for how to do it.
I did, but didnt like how the pictures showed, so didn't post those. Didn't want to confuse you. :)

Thanks you always seem to know how to help. How long have you been quilting?

Square not:

Right over left and under; left over right and uder.

I try!
Well, I've been sewing since I was about 10.
I did some sort of quilting thru out the years, but then got away from sewing. When my youngest was born, I started making her clothes. Once she started deciding what she wanted to wear, it was hard for me to buy what she wanted. She was one of those little girls that HAD to wear dresses. Not just ANY dress, it had to be the long ones. So, I found a pattern and made them for her. Once she outgrew those and didn't want dresses anymore, I didn't do much sewing except for a Christening Gown for my Godson. That was back in 96
Managed to NOT sew until about 2002. I did make curtains here and there, but that was about it.
Then one day, my neighbor came over and noticed I had a machine. She asked me if I did any sewing and explained everything to here, about sewing, not sewing, etc. She asked me if I would like to help her make a quilt. Explained that I hadn't done any sort of "formal" quilting and she said she didn't mind and all of a sudden....a quilter was born! lol
My neighbor friend already had a couple quilts she had made....bear paw, grandmothers flower garden and one or 2 others. I admired them, but would never attempt them. The ones I did, way back when, were just scrap quilts made with squares. She was the one that got me into patterns and such. Then, of course, we started searching the internet. lol
