Folded Fabric Base Block
Step-by-Step Instructions
A B
To begin the folded fabric quilt block, load your design and hoop
a piece of no show mesh stabilizer.
Run the first step in the design, which will be a squaring stitch for
the batting.
Take a piece of batting and place it over the squaring
stitches, being sure to cover them on all sides.
C D
Run the tacking stitch for the batting. Once secured, use
scissors to trim away the excess batting, cutting close to the
tacking stitches.
Now, run the next machine step which will be a placement stitch
for the Cornerstone fabric, which is the first piece of fabric placed
as a standard appliqué.
E F
Take your first fabric and place it right side up over the
batting, leaving enough fabric extending past the edges for a
1/2” seam allowance.
Run the tacking stitch for the first appliqué in a matching
thread color.
