Baby Chevron Quilt

finished size 39" x 45 1/2"

Choose 12 coordinating prints and a border fabric.

Fabric Requirements:

(I've given you the exact measurement needed in case you want to work from a stash)

Prints

   Fabrics 1 and 12 (first and last fabrics): 9" or 3/8 yard

   Fabrics 2 through 11: 5" or 1/4 yard

White

   30" or 1 yard

Border

   10"-12 1/2" (depending on the width of your fabric) or 1/2 yard

Binding

 1/2 yard

Cutting:

Tip: Before cutting strips, be sure to straighten the edge of your fabric and make sure it is cut perpendicular to the fold. An easy way to do this is to use 2 rulers. Place the horizontal line of one ruler along the fold. Butt the second ruler up to the edge of the first. Remove the first ruler and trim. Now your edge is perfectly perpendicular to the fold!

Cut strips the width of the fabric.

From each of fabrics one and twelve, cut 2 strips 4 1/2".

From each of fabrics two through eleven, cut 2 strips 2 1/2".

From the solid white, cut 29 strips 1".

From the border fabric, cut 4 strips 2 1/2".

From the binding fabric, cut 5 strips 2 1/2".
