yes you fold one line over to another, fabrics facing. then stitch 1/4 seam. then do the next one and the next till you have all seams done going one way, turn the quilt and start folding and stitching seams going the other and you are done.

See, like I said upthread,

IS SHE CRAZY?

@lacelady:
It's really lovely, and nice to have as an ongoing project. I love a controlled scrappy look.

Using my trusty little calculator (for those of us non-metric folks), that's a finished ~3/4".

Yikes!

That's beautiful. How are you going to quilt it? And why did you choose to do a postage stamp quilt? I am astonished at the sight of all the seams meeting! I cut mine with a rotary cutter and had a devil of a time getting 90 degree corners on the pesky little things. I think personally I am better suited to sewing 10 blocks of material or something - but as I am determined to make a watercolor quilt, I am trying to find a method I can do. First I have to learn to cut, then sew, then quilt! I admire your skill.

Ooops.

But that fusible is perfect for the watercolor. Just maybe do it with 2" squares instead. And you squares don't have to be perfectly cut. That's one of the advantages. I mean, they can be scrappy wonky, but if they at least are enough to be caught in the seams, then it's fine.

Lesley, you continually amaze me. That's beautiful!

pretty quilt!

I have been saving to start one of these and am in the swap that is going on, Now I am really confused with all the talk of paper piecing and fusable . I thought you just hand sewed them togeather. Yikes I am so confused......

You make YOUR quilt via any method YOU'RE comfortable using. There are no rules. You can machine piece, hand piece, paper piece, English paper piece, use fusible backing or....whatever works for you.

that is alot of blocks

Amazing and inspiring, Lacelady!
