Here is a link to a blog with tutorial on QAYG .... It requires 1/2" seams, but looks interesting!

Here is a tutorial that does it the way I do. No sash. No hand sewing. In the pics she does not show connecting row 1 to Row 2. Read down and there are pics for Row 2 to Row 3 and they show very well. This tutorial says what I had a difficult time articulating above. http://www.candiedfabrics.com/2013/0...ing-as-you-go/
I also like to use batting for a foundation for my blocks. In this block I used the batting as foundation and then trimmed a 1/4 seam allowance. I would attach a bunch of this side-to-side for a row. No need to put batting between top and bottom now. This way if my blocks are not too big and/or I use flannel back I can skip the machine quilting altogether. Or I may just run a three lines about 1/2' apart down the middle of the row for machine quilting. http://www.quiltingboard.com/attachm...357-square.jpg
