- Cut the rectangles, squares, sashing and cornerstones by fabric letter and block assignment, keeping the pieces for each block style separate.
- Piece the four block styles from their illustrated subunits, including the divided rectangles and the more detailed center-and-sashing units, then trim each block.
- Make the sashing rows with alternating strips and cornerstones. Arrange five blocks with sashing in each of the six block rows.

- Layer the top with batting and backing, baste and quilt as desired, and bind with the fabric G strips.
