How to make

Step 1

Wash and iron all fabric.

Step 2

Measure a 4 inch square onto some cardboard and cut out. This will be your template.

Step 3

Use your template to cut out squares from your fabrics. Lay out the squares in a design and size you like.

Step 4

Sew the squares right sides together by row, using a ¼ inch seam allowance.

Step 5

Press the seams open.

Step 6

Sew the rows with right sides together using a ¼ inch seam allowance.

Step 7

When the quilt top has been assembled, press all seams.

Step 8

Lay out the backing fabric and wadding on a flat surface.

Step 9

Place the quilt top, right side up and pin through all 3 layers.

Step 10

Make sure the quilt sandwich is secure and cut to the size of the quilt top.

Step 11

Sew the layers together, stitching in the seams where the squares are joined.

Step 12

Cut enough binding to reach around all 4 quilt sides.

Step 13

Unfold the bias binding and pin to the reverse side of the quilt, matching the edges.

Step 14

Sew the binding to the quilt, stitching as close to the edge as possible.

Step 15

Fold the bias binding over the quilt edge to the front side.

Step 16

Sew to the front, stitching close to the inside edge of the binding. Make sure to catch the binding on the reverse side in the stitching.
