I was given the beautiful floral fabric (left overs from making scrubs). I did not want to cut it up into small pieces, but could not go larger that 6.5 inches for the center sq. Sashing/cornerstone were cut at 2.5 inches, the first border is 2.5 inches, the second border is 4 inches and the outside border is 2.5 inches. The quilt is 83 inches sq.
I like the softness of it very much. It has not even been pressed yet...I literally just took it off the machine to show you, so please excuse the wrinkles... |
Lovely and very restful! Nice piecing and color choices.
|

The second row and all remaining rows has the sashing and corner stones added to the bottom of the block and the sides and those blocks sewn together in a row. When all the rows are made, then just sew the rows together. I always put my quilt on graft paper and hang that on my design wall to keep checking it as I sew, but it really is very easy and fast and accurate as well. Hope you try it for yourself. |
yes beautiful and calming-great top
|
Very pretty. Love those colors.

I saw it on the internet long ago and used this technique since. It shows 4 blocks being made and you will notice that the last blocks has the inside and outside sashing and corner stone. Add sashing and cornerstones to the bottom of the first row, before adding the second row. Next the 4 blocks are sewn together in a row.
