    I love the Quilt as you Sew baby blanket. When you get done sewing the strips to the batting and backing the quilt is done. All you need to do is bind it.

    Thank you so much.
    I made this one in 2 days. done in flannels

    alternating 4 patch and squares.

    cut 6.5 inch squares for the 4 patch
    6.5 squares for the other.

    measures 30 x 30 without borders



    cut 2 inch for the first border
    cut 4 inch for the last border


    Love this quilt! You said that for the 4 patch you cut 6.5 inch squares and the same size for the squares. Do you then quarter the squares for the 4 patch?

    i am bad..not the right measurements for the 4-patch
    if finishes at 6.5 to match the squares.

    the 4 patch squares are 3.5
    Thanks a bunch!!! Can't wait to make it!

    How big a quilt do you end up with using a jelly roll and the missouri star quilt tutorial?

    or use the tube pinwheel method on Missouri Star Quilt Company - I've made several baby quilts doing this and it takes no time at all!

    Actually I bought a couple of flannel receiving blankets that coordinated, cut them into 5" sq. and make a disappearing
    nine patch, it turned out so cut. Very soft, used pearl cotton
    and did a large quilt stitch about 1/4" in a grid format. It is
    adorable.
