My First Quilt | Sara Gallegos | Runtime (10 min)


Before you add sashing and cornerstones to your pieced quilt blocks, you need to square them up. Sara demonstrates how to do this while keeping an accurate quarter inch seam allowance outside of the points on a churn dash block. She then shows how to add sashing to the quilt block and how to add sashing with cornerstones to the block. Also see what Sara’s churn dash block would look like in a bigger quilt once sashing and cornerstones are added as needed on each block.
