Step 5:

Using a long ruler, cut one colored and one neutral 20-inch square in half diagonally from corner to corner to make 8 pieces of triangles.

Step 6:

Arrange the triangles into a large pinwheel, alternating the colored and neutral ones. Sew them together.

Step 7:

Get the remaining neutral and colored panels and cut them into 8-inch segments. You need 4 from each one for the sides. Sew a colored segment to a neutral one. Repeat with the remaining ones. Once done, sew two on the top and bottom of the quilt. The other two will be for the sides.

Step 8:

Reap the remaining 8-inch segments in half so it will only be 5 strips instead of 10. Then sew them to the end of the sides. Once done, sew the borders on the quilt. Trim excess.
