I hope everyone is
ready to sew! You sure sound anxious by the emails I've received
and the chatter on the Quiltvillechat
list! Believe me, I'm anxious to share this quilt with you! It
has
been a fun one to design and I love the results! Are you ready to
SEW?! Let's GO!
Step
1:
The
intro page told you we are going to need 2" strips in light and
dark!
Start sewing your light strips to your dark strips in any order, any
arrangement. This is the first very scrappy part.
We are making...TADA!! 150
4-patches! Does that sound a bit daunting?
It really does go fast, and
you can
do them a batch at a time until you have enough. Match 2" light
strips
with 2" dark toned strips with right sides together. If
one strip
was shorter than the other, I just matched a new strip up to the long
one and kept sewing in one continuous chain until I had about a mile of
strips piled behind my machine! Trim between the pairs and take
them
to the ironing board. Press the seam allowance towards the darker
fabric.
Use your rotary cutter and ruler to trim the end even and then subcut into 2" sections. I ended up with a whole bin of pairs!

Match the pairs right sides
together into 4patches and feed them continuously through the
machine. Press them open. Some people like to do the little
twisty
thing with their seam allowances so that they pinwheel around.
I'm too
lazy for that, but you can do it if you want to! :c)
When I am making bunches of units, I like to pin them in groups of 10. Just pile up 10 of them and stick a safety pin through them. It makes it really easy to keep track of what you have this way. That's it for this step!
