After running the basting stitch, remove the blocks from your
machine and open the design to inspect the alignment. If
adjustments are needed, remove the basting stitch, realign, and
restitch.
Once lined up, sew the entire seam with a regular stitch length
just inside the tacking stitch.

Once attached, butterfly press the back seam open using a
steam iron.
Repeat steps C - I until all 5 columns are joined and ready to be
sewn together.
K L
Lay the first and second columns right sides together, using the
same method as you did with each section’s blocks to line up the
tile scene. Pin the sections together in place to prevent shifting.
Again, sew the blocks together using the same large basting
stitch method as earlier, adjusting and restitching as needed until
aligned.
