Block 93

We're on the home stretch now.  Our next block is an edge block.  So, if you're adding the extra seam allowance, follow the red & white blocks.  If you're not adding the seam allowance, follow the brightly coloured blocks.

Here is the block set out and ready to go.

Here I've added the first border and trimmed it down to size.

And the second border.

The third border added.

And finally the last border to make up the finished block.

Here is the block set out for the approach without adding the extra seam allowance.  The centre squares have been prepped for square-in-a-square.

Here the centre square is done.  Next up is the triangles method for square-in-a-square.

And here is the centre completed.

Now the next border has been added.

And the final border added to make up our next block.

Hi CJ
I must thank you for leaving the Nearly Insane site up for us slow coaches. I am still piecing mine after 3 years, but I intend finishing, so thanks again.

Hi. I have stumbled upon your blocks and I am amazed. I have collected a stash of red fabrics and am eeger to start. Then my problem starts. I ordered the book from amazon in September 2017 and have not received it yet. After several enquiries the dispute were closed in december. Do you know where I can manage to get hold of the book Nearly Insane by Lis Lois for this amazing quilt?

Regards
