Select and stitch out the designs from each of the sets

I selected 30 designs to make this quilt

Once you have stitched all the designs out arrange how you would like the designs as seen in the photo above and below

 ImageCut away excess fabric around the satin stitch border of each square, as shown in the photo to the left
 
 ImageOn the back of each design square I would spray glue so as to keep the designs in place. This I would do one line at a time.
 
 ImageStitch each square down onto the backing fabric using your zig zag stitch, as shown to the left.

Then once I had finished stitching the row onto the backing fabric, I would then stitch the decorative stitch border track down, as seen in the photos above, below and to the left.

 
 On the vertical I stitched the decorative stitched border. As seen in the photo below

 Instructions for the Decorative Stitch Border
If you do not want to do the decorative stitch border you could use fabric for the tracks on the quilt

 Cut out a length of fabric longer than the quilt 5.5cm in or 2.5 inches in width
Iron a crease vertical down the centre of the fabric, this give you a clean line to stitch
