Sewing1. Refer to the block diagram and make a Fair and Square block. Make 1 block with fabric C; 2 blocks with fabric E; 2 blocks with fabric F; 2 blocks with fabric G and 2 blocks with fabric H for a total of 9 blocks.

2. Sew the blocks together in 3 rows of 3 blocks and 4 fabric D 3-1/2” x 18-1/2” sashing strips. Begin and end each row with a sashing strip. Refer to the color photograph of the quilt for block placement. The (1) block made with fabric C is in the center of the quilt. Press seams towards blocks.

3. Sew the 3 horizontal rows of blocks together separating them with the 4 fabric D 3-1/2” x 66-1/2” horizontal sashing strips to complete the quilt center. Press seams towards blocks.4. Sew the fabric C vertical borders to opposite sides of the quilt center. Sew the fabric C horizontal borders to the top and bottom of the quilt center.

5. Center and sew the 4” x 90” fabric B borders to each side of the quilt with an equal amount of border fabric overlapping at each end. Miter the corners and trim away excess fabric.

Finishing6. Layer the quilt top, batting and backing. Baste, then quilt the layers together.
