When you start a quilt it is essential that you have helpers...
Then you have to have a plan. I usually follow these steps...
Pattern - didn't really have one for this quilt. Just went by how many squares I had.
Cutting - the squares are 5 inch squares
Piecing and Borders - I placed the yellow in the center and surrounded it with the green squares.
Label - I spent alot of time trying to decide how to do a label. I eventually designed a label and had some fabric ones made up. I quite like them!
Quilting - nothing fancy, just 'in the ditch' but it sets off the squares very nicely
Binding - used the same fabric as the outer border and machine stitched with a feather stitch. I always have to really stop and think about how to do this step. I messed up the corners andhad to redo them...uggg! Someday I will do a tutorial with all the steps...
Here is the final product!
