the 9 1/2" x 5" rectangle. The diagonal guide line should go from upper right to lower left
as shown in the diagram below.

4. Sew along the diagonal guideline and trim off the excess fabric, leaving approximately
1/4" seam allowance.

5. Sew together the unit from step 2 to the unit made in step 4. Block should measure 9
1/2" x 9 1/2".

6. Repeat with remaining 9 1/2" x 5" rectangles and 5" square pairs. Make 40 blocks total.

7. Select 8 blocks and set them aside, we will be cutting them for the setting triangles
since the quilt since it is assembled on-point.

Assembling the quilt top

Use the diagram on page 6 to layout your quilt top.

Once you have laid out your quilt top, assemble each row. For on point quilts, you
assemble your rows diagonally instead of straight across. Once an entire row has been
sewn together, press your seams to one direction. Repeat this process until all rows are
assembled. Alternate your pressing direction for each row. This will allow the rows to
nest when they are sewn together.

Once all rows are assembled, combine the rows to finish the quilt top. To ensure a
smooth quilt top, press seams open when combining rows.

Finishing your quilt:

Backing
Piece the fabric for the quilt backing as needed.

Basting your quilt top, batting, and backing into the quilt sandwich
Lay backing fabric completely flat and right side down on a large flat surface. You can
tape your backing fabric down with masking or painters tape to ensure it is completely
flat and does not move. Place your batting on top of your backing fabric and smooth out
as flat as possible. Add your pressed quilt top right side up and smooth it out. Baste all
three layers together using your preferred method. We typically pin baste using large
curved safety pins, and space them 4-5” apart.

If you’re feeling fancy, you could send your quilt off to be long-arm quilted and pick one
of the many available designs or have it custom quilted. If that is your choice, you can
skip the quilt sandwich and prepare your quilt top and backing fabric as instructed by
your long-arm quilter.

Quilting and Binding

Get creative and let your imagination be your guide! This design would look great with
some custom quilting, or even some simple straight lines.

Sew your binding fabric, or purchase a pre-made option, and attach to the quilt as
desired. We typically make our own binding using 2.5” strips (cut WOF) and sew
together on the diagonal to reduce bulk; then we machine stitch both the front and back
edges to the quilt.
