together using a ½” seam allowance. Press seam open with a
warm iron and pressing cloth.
• Match raw edges of Ziggy Snow and Star Fuchsia and sew
with a ½” seam allowance. Press seam open with a warm iron
and pressing cloth.
• Lay pieced pillow front onto pillow back, right sides together,
making sure both naps are in the same direction. Pin at
corners, then along edges.
• On bottom edge, mark 2” in from each corner. This will be
your starting and stopping points. Be sure to backstitch, then
sew together with a ½” seam allowance. Stop and backstitch

point turner to push out corners.

Finished Size: approximately 38” x 58” (varies by layout choice)
Supplies• Fabric strips, subcut as desired • Quilt basting spray/temporary spray adhesive • One WOF strip, cut into 1 3/4” strips for binding • Flower head pins and Wonder Clips® (optional)• Backing • Walking foot or even-feed foot (optional)• Batting • Freezer or parchment paper (optional) • 90/14 Stretch sewing machine needle • Basic sewing supplies: rotary cutter, mat, thread
Cutting • Cut strips into the various widths as desired for layout. • For more accurate measuring of strips, use acrylic ruler and cut from reverse side of Cuddle®.
Sewing • Refer to the Stitch and Flip handout for detailed instructions on constructing your quilt. • Lengthen your stitch length to 4.0mm or 8 stitches per inch.• Use a 90/14 stretch needle to avoid skipped stitches. • Use pins to hold the fabrics in place as you sew. • Sew a straight stitch with a 1/2” seam allowance on all seams.• Sew slowly along each strip, stitching through all layers (strips, batting and backing).
Binding• Refer to the Binding with Cuddle® handout for detailed instructions on binding your quilt. • We recommend using Wonder Clips® or pins to hold binding around raw edge as you sew.• Sew with a 1/2” seam allowance. • Sew slowly, removing clips or pins as you reach each one. • You can sew binding to back and bring around to front or vice versa, if preferred. • Set your machine to a wide and long zig zag or serpentine for topstitching raw edge binding in place.

Basting • Put cloth or newsprint on table to protect surfaces from overspray when spray-basting backing and strips. • Use basting spray sparingly; a light spritz will be enough to hold fabrics in place.
