Green quilt - Main patchwork completed!

I sewed together the 15 large blocks and now have completed my main piece of patchwork.  Here is the picture.  (It's on my bed so, you do see my quilt for that bed in the back round.

Main patchwork completed

There are just a couple of steps to get to this point

1)  Make your bed (Tee Hee)
2)  Lay out the blocks and make sure there are no 2 pieces side by side
3)  Begin sewing blocks together then finally the rows together
4)  Always have your iron ready and use it frequently.  I always iron seams before I go over them in a different direction.  For example, the blocks are sewn together but, before adding rows, I iron.
 Next step:
Sashing - to be continued.....

Happy quilting!
