Now I’ll put it all together. sewing instructions Sew a 1½” x 6½” strip to one side of a 4½” square using a partial seam. Press seam toward strip. Sew a 1½” x 6½” strip to a 4½ square, using a partial seam. Sew another 1½” x 6½” strip to the next side of the square. Sew another 1½” x 6½” strip to the next side of the square. Sew on the remaining 1½” strips. Sew on the remaining 1½” strips. Finish the partial seam that was sewn on first. Finish sewing the partial seam that was sewn on first. Sew a 2½” x 8½” crumb pieced strip to one side, using a partial seam. You’ll notice I’m using the ¼” foot with guide but you could also use the ¼” foot without the guide if you wish. Either one helps give a perfect ¼” seam, but I find the ¼” foot with guide gives that extra hand in keeping the fabric steady on its course. Sew a 2½” x 8½” crumb pieced strip to one side, using a partial seam. Sew on the remaining 2½” strips in the same way as the strips around the center square.
