Notes:

Piecing the Project:

Arrange the eight 6" Circles on the background to form a caterpillar. Add the 5" and 2 1/2" Circles to form the tail.
When satisfied with the arrangement, heat fuse in place with iron. Position the feet, eyes and antennae as shown. Heat fuse in place with an iron. Stitch around as desired.
Sew the 1 1/2" Strips to perimeter of the background.
Arrange the 4 1/2" Squares, alternating colors, 12 across by 6 down.
Sew the 12 Squares together to form a row. Press towards the darker color. Repeat to form 5 more rows.
Sew 3 rows together. Repeat.
Sew each 3-row section to the top and bottom of the background.

Finishing:

Layer the backing, batting and quilt top. Quilt by hand or machine, as desired.
Sew binding strips together to form one long strip. Fold wrong sides together lengthwise and press.
With a 1/4" seam, sew the raw edges of the binding to the edges of the right side of the quilt. Turn the folded edge of the binding to the back side of the quilt and stitch in place by hand, mitering the corners.
