I am making a four-square quilt and find I am getting the four squares together okay but once I have joined several to make a row by using sashing in between blocks I find that the rows don't line up well. So from one row to the next the blocks are slightly off. I am trying hard to keep my seams uniform but they must be off a little. Or I wasn't quite as precise in cutting the sashing strips as I thought I was. I am being good about pressing at each stage - block to block and pair to pair and then the rows but still there is that skew that develops as I go along. I think the next quilt will be a quilt-as-you-go one that comes in a kit. If I can learn that technique, I may make several that way. Then I think I'll use up more scraps and short strips to make random diagonals that then get cut into whatever size square I decide to work with. The ones I have seen done that way don't have any sashing. The squares are sewen together to the size desired and either finished by using the pillowcase method or by binding after the quilting is done.
