Planning Bright prints and tone-on-tones from the Summerfest and Little Miss Sunshine collections, plus basics from Moda Fabric are featured in this colorful version of Lynn s quilt. Sponsored by: The Treetop and Mini Star Blocks are cut from templates. To prepare templates, trace on template plastic, including seam lines, grain lines, and match points. Place templates right side down on wrong sides of appropriate fabrics; mark around templates. Cut out fabric patches. Use an accurate G seam allowance throughout to ensure all elements of the quilt fit together well. Handle all bias edges carefully to avoid distortion. McCallsQuilting.com 2016 McCall s Quilting 2
