More Quilt As You Go

      I completed all the blocks for Rainbow Flower, but when I moved the blocks disappeared.  But it was so easy I may try it again.

     This is an 8" block, so cut batting 9" and backing 10".  Each strip finishes at 2" so I would cut 3" strips because I use a 1/2" seam allowance. 

     Position 2" yellow square at upper left corner.  Lay 2" pink square right sides facing over yellow square and stitch in place.  Open out.  Lay pink strip right sides together covering yellow and pink strip.  Cut off even with bottom of pink strip and stitch in place.



Continue adding strips until block is finished.



Below are other designs that can be used with this technique.
