This a fun and easy project to do with little girls. The quilt is made up of squares sandwiched (front, back, and filler) together and quilted with an X on each square using a machine. Then pieced together with raw edges visible and clipped to fray all blocks for a very cute finish.
I started out by cutting each square 6 1/2” each…..
Why, Yes! I am wearing a Cars Band-Aid! The rotary cutters are VERY sharp! Be extra careful!
She’s such the helper…
Sandwich the back, batting, and front, then pin in place…
Sew an X across the square…
Yep….each and every square….
Once you’ve quilted them all……
You can arrange them however you want….I hate patterns (thanks OCD), so I just mixed them up :)
I was short one, so I pieced a square together….
You are going to sew them with backs together, so that the raw edges are visible…
Once you’ve put it together you clip the raw edges to give it a frayed look and you get a lovely quilt like this……
I would love to make one of these! Maybe one day I will get the courage! I am not a big sewer, but I would really love one of these for my bed! You did a beautiful job, thanks for sharing!
