This pattern is great if you have a few quilts under your belt! The blocks are simple, but this pattern is labeled as Intermediate, just because there are a few elements that really need to be precise. Here are some things that we will cover in the QAL:
- How to achieve an accurate and consistent seam allowance
- Keeping things square as you sew
- Strip piecing
- How to "snowball" corners
- Diagonal Row Construction
.
