The classic Around the World quilt, made simple. Rings of color radiate from the center, and the printed grid foundation keeps every square lined up without matching points, so even beginners can make this timeless scrappy quilt.

Finished size depends on the grid you choose (before borders):

• 1" finished squares: 35" x 35" (cut 1.5" squares)
• 1.5" finished squares: 52.5" x 52.5" (cut 2" squares)
• 2" finished squares: 70" x 70" (cut 2.5" squares)

What's included

• The Around the World quilt pattern and instructions
• 12 panels of EasyPiecing Grid by Ten Sisters Handicraft in the size you select (each panel is 9 x 14 squares, 126 squares)

Not included: fabric.

How it goes together

Place your cut squares on the fusible grid foundation, press them in place, then fold and sew along the printed lines. No measuring each seam and no fussy matching.

Tips: a washable glue stick helps tack squares before pressing, and a pressing sheet keeps the adhesive off your iron and ironing board.
