Let's Put It All Together

Well ladies, can you believe that we're at the end of our quilt...hope you all enjoyed it as much as we did.  Let's get to it...I

Gather all of your blocks that you've made the last several weeks...following the diagram
lay out your blocks...sew your blocks together and then sew your rows together.  Give it a good press and add your borders

Borders for my version...


Gather your 2- 2 1/2" X 56 1/2"  and your 2- 2 1/2" X 60 1/2" inner border strips and your
2- 6 1/2" X 60 1/2" and your 2- 6 1/2" X 72 1/2" outer border

Sew your 2 1/2" X 56 1/2" inner border strips to the left and right sides of your top.  Press toward the inner border strip.  Add your 2 1/2" X 60 1/2" inner border strips to the top and bottom of  your top.  Press toward the inner border strip.

Sew you 6 1/2" X 60 1/2" outer border strips to the left and right sides of your top.  Press toward the outer border strip.  Add you 6 1/2" X 72 1/2" outer border strips to the top and bottom of your top.  Press toward the outer border strip.

There you go...you're
all done...quilt, bind and ENJOY!
