Step 7. Trim the blocks to 12.5″ square.
Step 8. Start laying it all out. It’s like a really big puzzle.
Step 8.1. Take a picture of Maeve because she sees you taking pictures of other things and she wants in on it too.
Back to Step 8.
Step 9. Sew all those blocks together.
Step 10. Sew your backing fabric together.
Step 11. Back to the iron.
Step 12. Pinning! I pin baste my quilts. A bent safety pin goes in every 4″. That means there are over 500 pins in this quilt.
Step 13. Trim the excess backing and batting.
All done!
