Are you all caught up? Just one more thing to create: the sashing that goes between the rows. Get those sharp pins out – keeping everything neat at this point will keep the quilt square.
Assemble:
- (18) 2″ x 2″ red squares
- (24) 2″ x 12-1/2″ background rectangles
Make (6) sashing sets like the one below. These will be the center sashings and the top and bottom sashing. Press away from the red square. Your sashing should measure 2″ x 53″.
Creating the Top
Sew the sashings between the rows and to the top and bottom of your quilt top. Take care to alternate the red square seams at each intersection. Use pins to keep everything in place.
Press toward the sashing. Your quilt top should measure 53″ x 69-1/2″.
