Square in a square

 Never underestimate the amount of effort, time, fabric (and coffee breaks) the square in a square blocks take.

For each granny square quilt, I need 70 for the borders. And since the quilting on quilt 1 is done in the foreseeable future, it is time to get on with sewing nr 2.  I already finished the main part, so now it s time to get to the borders.

I`ll take you through the process of my way of making the square blocks..and I skipped the fabric cutting part. I used leftovers from the quilt for the first batch.
Chainsewing the first triangle to the inner square. I `pinch` Both the fabric pieces in the middle so I can align them perfectly.
Sewing the opposite triangle, using the first `pinch
Cut the dog ears and press and repeat for triangle 3 and 4
Repeat for triangle 3 and 4

Press again and cut to size


I made 25 today.. not even close..
