- Cut and label the background squares, batik block pieces, sashing rectangles, cornerstones, borders and binding strips.

- Piece the horizontal sashing rows with alternating rectangles and cornerstones. Join seven blocks with short sashing into each of nine rows and assemble the center with the pieced sashing between rows.
- Add the outer side borders, then the top and bottom borders. Layer, baste and quilt as desired, then bind with K strips.
