Holidays in Patches Pattern Ideas

Instructions for 4 Block Wall Hanging:

·         Follow the instructions as shown in any Seasons in Patches and Holidays in Patches patterns to make a appliqué block, including adding inner border and outer border.  Repeat to make 3 more, for a total of 4.  I used the Stocking Pattern...but you can mix and match! 

·         Sew blocks together as shown, with 2 across and 2 rows.

·         Stitch on the Ric Rac around the outer edge with a scant ¼ inch so that when you sew on the outer border you will not see stitching lines.

·         For outer borders, cut 4 ~ 4.5” x 44” strips.  Trim as needed.

·         Sew on outer borders, sewing on the sides first and finishing with the top and bottom borders.

·         Layer backing (right side down), batting and quilt (right side up).  Baste together and quilt as desired.  Trim.

·         For binding, cut 2 ½” strips (A total of 4)
