FLOSSIE QUILT ALONG | Week 4 | Perfecting Your Quilt Layout & Block Placement Tips

In Week 4 of the Flossie Quilt Along, we’re shifting our focus from making blocks to perfecting the layout of our quilts. I’ll show you how to place your blocks on the design wall, ensuring they’re in their accurate positions. We’ll discuss alternating and flipping blocks, spreading colors evenly, and avoiding color grouping. Plus, I’ll share why letting your layout sit for a while is important and how that can help you spot any changes you want to make over time. Join me as we bring our quilts closer to completion!

Please note that this quilt-along event is being distributed via email. For the nitty-gritty, you’ll need to check your weekly emails sent directly to you. This post is just a brief outline.
