Patchwork squares

Instructions

I just arranged these patchwork squares into a likeable pattern and sewed them row by row- quilted it, then added some ribbon/bow/flowers -especially in the middle square and did not put any quilt binding - just flipped up the back (fleece) and sewed it over...

Category: Quilting

Type of item: Functional

For: Home

Style: Cute, Casual


Materials

Cotton materials for pieced top, fleece for the back, batting, thread, sewing supplies & tools. Oh yes, a couple of little flowers/with ribbons for the middle.

What was your inspiration?

Co-worker - for her birthday

What are you most proud of?

How well it all came together with the colors.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

You can arrange your patchwork squares in any design you seem fit - I usually place it on a graph paper first - using a pencil, then if I don't like something I can erase and rearrage - then once I like the design, I can cut the fabrics.

it's really simple ..get a piece of graph paper and make squares - how ever many you want across and down - then make a design ---use a pencil so you can chane it if it's not quite right - then onec you have the design - cut your squares and number the rows then sew the aquares together , then sew the rows together...add a bordr (or two ) however large you want the quilt to be..then sandwich it between the back and batting and quilt...then either add a binding or flip the excess from the back over and sew it down to make the final border/binding...and it's done! Have fun!!
