square.

triangle to each side of the 4-3/4"

feather squares as shown:

3. Stitch a dark brown 4-1/4"

quarter-square triangle to two

adjoining sides of each of the

2-5/8" leaves on black 

squares.

4. Sew half the light green 4-1/4"

quarter-square triangles to 4-1/4"

leaves on cream quarter-square triangles.

Sew the other half together as shown.

5. Add one of each light green/leaves on cream

triangle units to each of 

the dark brown/leaves on

black units.

6. Lay out one feather/red unit, four units from

Step #5, and four 3-1/2" cream squares as shown.

Stitch units into rows. Sew rows together. Make a

total of ten pieced blocks.

7. Lay out the blocks in five horizontal rows of 

four blocks each as shown in quilt layout. Add

1-3/4" x 12-1/2" brown sashing and 1-3/4" brown

cornerstones between and around the blocks. Sew

pieces into rows, then sew rows together.

Borders & Finishing:

1. Make two borders each with two 2-1/2" x 44"

cream strips together end-to-end. Add borders to

right and left sides. Press and trim excess from

these and all successive border additions. Cut one

2-1/2" x 44" cream strip into two equal lengths.

Sew each half-length strip end-to-end with a full-

length strip. Add these borders to top and bottom.

2. Add 1-3/4" red border in the same manner as

the first border.

3. Add the forest scenic 6-1/2" x length of fabric

strips to right and left sides of quilt. Make two

borders each with two forest scenic 6-1/2" x width

of fabric strips stitched together end-to-end. Add

these to the top and bottom of quilt.

4. Cut backing into two equal lengths. Sew the two

lengths together along selvage edges. Layer the

backing, batting and quilt top. Quilt or tie asdesired.

5. Prepare binding from eight 2-1/2" x 44" dark 

brown strips. Sew strips together into one long

binding strip. Press strip in half lengthwise.

6. Carefully trim backing and batting even with

quilt top.

7. Leaving an 8" tail of binding, sew binding to

top of quilt through all layers matching all raw

edges. Miter corners. Stop approximately 12" fromwhere you started. Lay both loose ends of binding

flat along quilt edge. Where these two loose ends

meet, fold them back on themselves and press to

form a crease. Using this crease as your stitching

line, sew the two open ends of the binding together

right sides together. Trim seam to 1/4" and press

open. Finish sewing binding to quilt. Turn binding
