*Before cutting, print eight copies of the diamond template, two copies of the letter N, and one copy of each of the remaining letter templates. If using double-sided interfacing, trace the templates wrong side up on the paper side

of the interfacing, then fuse templates to the fabrics indicated in the cutting list, according to manufacturer's instructions. Cut out each appliqué on the line.

TIP-How to Cut a WOF Square

Remove the selvage from one long edge and square up one short edge of the fabric yardage. Place the yardage on a large flat surface, with the cut edges to the bottom and right. Fold the fabric in half diagonally, along the bias, making sure not to overlap the remaining selvage. Trim the upper and left edges to match the cut edges of the fabric.

MAKING THE LIST QUILT PATTERNNote: All seam allowances are 1/4" unless otherwise specified. Press seam allowances open unless otherwise indicated.

Make the Background Trim any remaining selvages from

the background strips. Join two matching wide background strips along one short end. Press the seam open. Join two matching narrow background strips along one short end. Press the seam open.

Being careful not to stretch the cut bias edge, arrange one matching triangle and the narrow background strip as shown. Join the strip and triangle along the adjacent edge. Press the seam open. Trim the lower strip edge even with the lower edge of the triangle. Trim the upper strip diagonally, in line with the diagonal edge of the triangle.

Join the wide background strip to the lower edge of the triangle, and trim the strip ends as shown.

Repeat steps 1–3 with the remaining matching triangle, wide, and narrow background strips.

Align the two triangle units along the diagonal edges, matching the seam-lines of the large inner triangles. Join the two units together. Press the seam open. Trim the upper right and lower left points as shown to complete the background.

Add the AppliquésNote: If using double-sided fusible interfacing, fuse each template to the background fabric before appliqueing in each step.

Fold the quilt background in half lengthwise, and gently press the fold. Open the folded background and refold in half crosswise, and gently press the fold again, to mark the quilt center.

Referring to the quilt photo for fabric placement, arrange the eight diamonds at the quilt center, aligning the diamond edges with the seam between the triangles and the crease lines. Pin (or fuse, if using fusible interfacing) the diamonds in place. Using matching thread and a stitch on your choice, sew along the outer edges of each diamond to appliqué each shape in place.

MAKING THE LIST QUILT PATTERN Referring to the quilt photo, center

the N, I, C, and E letters on the white background above the diamonds, placing the letters 1" apart and about 2" from the upper raw edge of the quilt background. Pin or fuse the letters in place. Using matching thread and a stitch on your choice, sew along the outer edges of each letter to appliqué each letter in place.

Referring to the quilt photo, center the N, A, U, G, H, T and Y letters on the Marina background below the diamonds, placing the letters 1" apart

and about 2" from the lower raw edge of the quilt background.

Pin or fuse the letters in place. Using matching thread and

a stitch on your choice, sew along the outer

edges of each letter to appliqué each

letter in place.

Make the Backing Sew the two backing triangles

together along the long edge to make a large square. Press the seam open.

Sew one 18"-wide backing strip to the top of the large square along one large edge. Sew the remaining 18"-wide backing strip to the bottom of the large square. Press the seam allowances toward the large strips.

Join two 13"-wide backing strips along one short edge. Press the seam open. Repeat for the remaining pair of strips. Sew one strip to each side of the backing. Trim the excess strip length even with the upper and lower backing edges.

Finishing Layer the backing, batting, and quilt

top. Baste the layers together and quilt as desired.

Stitch around the perimeter of the quilt, a scant 1/4" from the edge. Trim the batting and backing even with the edge of the quilt top. Use your favorite method to bind the quilt.
