FINISHING STEPS

A B
Take the first two blocks fromthe top left corner and place
them face to face, lining them up at their tacking stitches.
To begin making your Picnic Blanket, gather all your blocks and
lay them out to create the basket weave pattern shown here.
We will begin by joining the first two blocks in the top left of the
quilt, working on the first row. NOTE: If you select a different
layout, simply stitch the needed blocks and arrange.
C D
Pin the blocks together along the edge to be joined. Using a straight stitch and walking foot on your sewing
machine, stitch the blocks together, sewing just slightly inside
the tacking and squaring stitch lines.
E F
After you have joined the blocks, use a steam iron to press
open the seams of the block.
Following pictured steps B through E, continue joining the first
row of blocks together.
