Then sew two 2x4 pieces together for a total of four 4x4 pieces. Sew two together then sew your last seam. THis weighs less as I pass it through the machine so less drag until that last piece. If this is clear as mud, PM me for more help (or ignore this--whichever works) Have a good day.
I think I understand what you mean. Sew all the pieces in pairs. then sew those pairs to adjacent pairs. Then sew the 4 pieces to the next adjoined 4 pieces, and so on. Correct?
