Crazy quilt wall hanger

This is my first square. I have designed it myself and it needs still some work on it. I want to make 4squares for spring, summer and winter. So intotal 12 squares and combine this to make a wall hager for my summerhouse. It is very fiddly and time consuming. It is 5" by 5".

Can you explain?
by jenne 23 Apr 2012
I will try, No embroidery just sewing the first thing you will make is a pattern of how you want you block to look also you will need this to know how to sew the shapes ( plain paper) 1.make a square of any size with you ruler draw lines going across or down but to do not cross you lines over the top of each other.2. about twelve shapes inside the block number them 1,2,3, etc 3.place your freezer paper down and trace these lines on to it. next cut you shapes apart iron these onto the wrong side of you fabric fat quarters work great for this 4.cut these out with a rotarty cutter as you cut add you seam allowance with you ruler ONE Fourth inch seam with the firt drawing you did as a guide sew these shapes back together, they may not go back in sequence sew according to how the lines touch each other. sew only in straight lines. After you have finished you block press and leaver the freezer on until you have done your dectortive sitches cover the seam lines with you dectortive stitches. ( I will put a picture of a block on the project page. (also you can make these dectorate anything Border, collars, Blocks, jacket insets, etc.
