| There is more then one way to do quilt as you go. I will attempt to show you at least two of the ones I have used. This first one I did 1 full sized and two crib sized quilts, Method #1 ![]() cut all the backing and batting and top squares at the same time allowing for a 1/4 inch seam on all sides. If you are doing embroidered blocks then do them before you cut the square to the final size. each square is made into a sandwich of backing batting and top square. The right sides of the backing and the top are right side OUT. I did a simple quilt outline on each square to hold them together. I again measured the final size of the square and trimmed off what was excess. ![]() each square was then sewn together by placing two squares with sides matching and back sides together leaving a seam on the TOP of the quilt. This was then covered with a piece of matching or contrasting bias tape or a piece I cut that was 2 inches wide then pressing both sides in to meet. You need wide flat fold bias for this... the seams may be too thick so trim as close as you dare without cutting into the seam line. Press flat before applying the tape or fabric strip over this. | (The Second Method This one is a work in progress as it is the one I am working on now for my yahoo group project.
