Quilt layout and preparation

The quilt is made up of a centre panel of nine (9) blocks. This is surrounded by four borders, two of which are pieced. Border 2 uses the same FPP templates as the block borders, but in different colour arrangements – see

Fig 1 for the quilt layout. Before you start cutting and stitching, refer to Foundation Paper Piecing Tips. See

for a fabric key. The centre blocks and Border 2 use foundation.
