He's very meticulous. He counts out enough blocks for one row. The he sews two together. Then two more. When all of them are done, then he starts sewing the two to another 2 and so on until he has a whole row sewn. Then it lays it on the end of his machine table. Then he does the whole process over again until he doesn't have enough room to lay any more strips. Then he starts sewing the strips of blocks together until he has half of his quilt together. Then he sews the second half the same way.
