3. Using the quilt photo as a guide, sew seven square blocks together to form the top border segments. Be sure the prints are placed in the same corner in all blocks. Press. Repeat to form the bottom border segment.
4. Sew the Half-Square Triangle segments to the sides of the quilt top first.

Finishing:
