SewJoyce, I will try to explain:D
Make the blocks, QAYG style, so you have mini block sandwiches. Trim square.
Place two blocks BACK sides together.
Lay a binding strip (1" wide I think will do) the same length as the blocks, down one edge right side to right side of block which will be on top.
Stitch 1/4" seam through all three layers.
On the back side will be a regular seam
On the right side you will have the seam allowance plus the binding flapping.
Fold raw edge of binding strip for seam allowance under then fold over the exposed seam allowance and stitch down!!
Continue along the width of your row as above.
Then to join rows use the same technique but use a binding strip the full length of the row.
Well that's my understanding of it....hope this helps:lol:
Many quilters choose to just cut the backing fabric 1" bigger all round and use this to cover the joins on the front in a similar manner, but your backing has to coordinate with your top.
I would prefer the above technique as you have more choses to play with colour or go completed scrappy to match :D
