9-Patch Table Topper Quilt Pattern Part 2

 With cutting finished it's time to sew

The Quilt Ladies Store

With smaller blocks:

Use the same 1/4" seam allowance you always do.

After sewn, cut the seam allowance down. 

I like to press my seams on the center row to the outside,
and the top/bottom rows to the inside. This is the way, I like to do it, but as long as they are opposite?? it's all good. 

I pin everything, again, use a 1/4" seam allowance
and cut it down or in half.

 All the bottom

What I'm Quilting on Monday's

This is my class quilt from when I was teaching .This here is 1 inch squares, the class used 2 inch squares finished size.

This is machines pieced and at my group now I'm hand quilting.

In the class you learned cutting, piecing, hand appliqué and putting it all together. An 8 week class.

Squares and triangles quilting staples!!

Cut 1/4" Seam Allowance Before Borders Added

After your quilt blocks are sewn together,check and make SURE your seam allowance is 1/4"

These quilt blocks are set on point and I always cut "offsetting" triangles bigger and I MUST cut to a 1/4" seam allowance.  Doing this your border will be easier to sew on, as points will not be cut off and the seam will be straighter.

Just one of the Many Quilter's Tricks !
