    there is a good tute in this forum too that adds strips to each block, front and back, if you prefer that method.

    Do a search for the disappearing 4 patch. It makes an 8" block then you cut your batting and backing just alittle larger then do what ever quilting on the 4 patch.

    I've done quilt as you go using the log cabin pattern. Use same methods that are discribed in the tutorials. I stitched by hand, but one could machine stitch. Cut the backing an inch larger than the finished block for seam allowance when joining the blocks on the back.

    I learned the method taught in the book Crazy Shortcut Quilts.

    Although I don't make crazy quilts, I use their QAYG method.
    I've taught this method to the ladies in my quilting group with great success!

    If you can find any of Sharon Pederson's books in the library, she does QAYG......"Reversible Quilts"
