Remember that all of the sashing takes place on the left-hand side only.
Step 2:
Cut your grey strips into 9 inches.
Its 9 because you will add a one-and-a-half-inch square to the end of the strip.
Next, cut a 1 1/2-inch strip of white fabric, then cut it into squares.
Sew with a quarter of an inch seam allowance.
Make another one for the bottom.
Sew with a quarter of an inch seam allowance.
Do the same for the bottom.
double-check that the white square on the bottom is on the right side.
Repeat with the remaining 10 squares.
Step 4:
For the sashing, cut 1 1/2-inch strips from the white fabric.
Sew on the left side and bottom of the block with a quarter-of-an-inch seam allowance.
Trim off excess then press it flat.
Repeat it with the other blocks.
You will need 80 pieces of this block, 8 rows with 10 blocks for each row.
Sew them per row first then sew the rows together.
after you snag sewn them together, run a row sashing down the right side and across the top.
