How to Make a Large Tulip Quilt:
Step 1
Cut the fabrics according to size as instructed in the video and label them so you don’t get confused later. Lay out the fabric pieces as shown in the video, then grab the outermost red fabric strip, and flip it over so that the wrong side is up. Fold the edge over matching the sides nicely, then apply some glue, and press it down nicely.
Step 2
Place a white square fabric above it matching the edges, then apply some glue, and press it down again. Do the same for the remaining red fabric strips making sure that the direction of the fold are opposite from each other, and refer to the video tutorial for accuracy.
Step 3
Rearrange the fabric pieces into a block, then stitch the 4 squares at the lower corner to make a 4-patch block, and then stitch the outer strips one at a time pressing the seams as you go.
Step 4
Make 3 more of this block to make a total of 4, then arrange them together, and stitch the blocks to each other making sure to add a sashing at the center and an outer border as well. For the final step, curve the edges of the tulips, then pin them in place, and carefully topstitch over the curved edges.
