Beginner's Guide to QUILT AS YOU GO

MAKING A BLOCK

Get the hang of the quilt as you go technique by making a simple Log Cabin block! From there we’ll show you how to stitch your blocks together

1 Cut a piece of batting approx 1½in larger than the finished block size you want to achieve. Fold in half vertically and crease to mark the centre. Repeat this to crease horizontally. This will mark the centre of the batting.
