Steps of Quilting
• First, you need to choose the colors you would like to use.
• Many women who quilted in the years of settlement of the Appalachian region used scraps of fabric that were left over from the clothes they made for their families.
• Next, gather the materials, and cut out the shapes of the fabric.

Steps of Quilting
• The type of fabric and embellishments you decide to use will affect the overall feel of the quilt.
• Designing the quilt is the next step.
• The shapes need to be put together in squares the way the quilter likes it.

Steps of Quilting
• Once the pieces are arranged, you need to sew them together in blocks to be the pieces of the quilt.

Steps of Quilting
• After all the quilting blocks are made, the border needs to be sewn together.
• This part enhances the quilt like a frame enhances a picture.

Steps of Quilting
• After all these steps have been completed, the finishing steps need to be done.
• A back needs to be made, buy having the same size square as all of the squares and border together.
• Filling needs to be put in between the back and the front when they are sewn together.

Steps of Quilting
• Once all the parts are sown together with the filling in the middle, stitching needs to be done on the designs to make them stand out.
