Rotate the ruler and again line up the 45 degree angle along the straight edge to make a triangle. Cut 1 setting triangle from each strip for a total of 10 different triangles. Select 4 of those triangles and cut them in half to make the corner triangles. You will have 4 extra corner pieces left over. Make 10. 45 degree angle 45 degree angle Select 4 of the 10 and cut in half.

Measure width of quilt top from side to side including borders just added. Cut 2 inner border strips to this measurement. Sew to top and bottom of quilt top. Follow the same procedure for outer border strips. 10. Make your quilt sandwich: layer the quilt top, right side up, over the batting and backing, wrong sides up. Baste layers to secure. Quilt as desired. 11. Make and attach the binding: Join the 2½" fabric 7 strips together to create one continuous piece. Press in half lengthwise with wrong sides together.
