Friendship Mini Sampler Quilt Part 7

Ready to sew all the blocks together and add the border.


Stitch the Flying Geese to the Basket Block, the Churn Dash to one of the 9-Patches and the Ohio Star to the other 9-Patch. Sew the groups of blocks together.

The border pieces are cut from 3" strips. The short sides are cut 6+1/2" and the long sides are cut 10+1/2".
Stitch a 4-Patch to both ends of a short border piece. Stitch both long border pieces to the long sides of the quilt. Add the 4-Patch/border pieces to the short sides.


The blocks are laid out this way because the quilt is designed to go either vertically or horizontally.

Almost there - tomorrow is the last day of the quilt along. I will have the pattern for the appliqué and ideas for quilting.
