Finishing
your Quilt
You’ve learned to make bea utiful quilt blocks in the
hoop. Now, learn how to piece your blocks together to
create a bea utiful new quilt!
You’ve learned how to do appliqué and embroidery on
all sorts of fun project ideas, and even learned about
traditional quilt block techniques. The excitement is in
picking the designs you want to incorporate, as well as
picking the fabrics and thread colors that will be used in
your finished piece. However, creating the quilt blocks is
only part of the fun!
This section of your book will teach you step-by-step how
to piece together your quilt blocks, as well as how to add
the binding to the edges and securing your back fabric.
Other vital information, such as quilt dimensions and
the amount of fabrics needed can be pure guess work if
you’ve never assembled a quilt on your own. We want to
make finishing a quilt as easy to understand as the other
techniques you’ve learned, whether you are a quilting pro
or a novice.
Use the handy charts on the following pages to map out
your next quilting project. You’ll be able to calculate your
block sizes, binding material needed and how many
blocks you’ll need total. All you have to do is stitch them
out, stack them up and get ready to sew your way to a
new and cozy custom quilt!
