Mardi Gras Magic Quilt – Piecing the Quilt Top
Rotating every other row by 180 degrees, sew the rows together as shown below. Notice how the Flying Goose blocks make a secondary design. Because of the way you have pressed your seams, they should just touch each other at the intersection. Use pins to encourage this behavior.
Press and measure. Your quilt top should measure 48-1/2″ × 60-1/2″.
