    I don't really have a method. I quilt the blocks individually, leaving enough room to seam together into rows. I seam the back together first, then flip over the top edge and stitch down leaving room at the end to join rows.(hope that made sense) I added the little stars as I was joining rows and I put decorative stitching on all the joining seams.

    Maybe someday I'll try doing real QAYG with sashing, maybe cornerstones.

    Forgot to mention I use a lot of pins when joining blocks.

    Well, this is exactly what puzzles me. these little stars! It looks to me anyway, very difficult to make them so "perfect". excellent job!!!
