Description

Quilt As You Go is a method of making a quilt sandwich with the finished quilt blocks or rows, batting cut to the finished size and backing, then quilting the finished block. The blocks are then stitched together on the quilt top and the back seams are finished by hand, leaving you with a quilt top already quilted at the end of the project. There are many ways to Quilt As You Go, and all leave you with a quilted top when you are done piecing.

The quilt as you go technique means you create BLOCKS and you quilt them individually, and when you join the QUILTED blocks into a large quilt, with sashing. While you can make the blocks in any technique you want, in this guide I used the easiest technique: I just quilted a design in the center of the blocks.
