In this tutorial we are going to show you how to fashion this attractive bed cover.
The size of the finished cover is 114" by 78" (284 x 196 cm). You will need fabric of two matching colors.
For this project we used the design set Sunflowers Collection.
Step One: Cut out 14 square pieces of color A and 16 square pieces of color B.
Each square measures 13" x 13" (33 x 33cm), after stitching it should be 12" x 12" (31 x 31cm)
Having embroidered all pieces, assemble them as shown on the diagram and use a sewing machine to stitch them together.
Step Two: Cut out 2 more square pieces of color A; cut them diagonally into 4 triangles (c). Machine stitch triangles (c) to the bed cover according to the diagram.
Step Tree: Cut out 2 square pieces measuring 35" x 35" (89 x 89 cm) each; cut them diagonally into 4 triangles (d). Machine stitch triangles (d) to the bed cover according to the diagram. The cover's top is ready.
Step Four: Prepare the backing (a rectangle measuring 104" x 70" or 264 x 176 cm), spread it evenly on a spacious surface, cover with 1 layer of batting (a rectangle measuring 112" x 76" or 284 x 196 cm) so that 4" (10 cm) of batting projects from each edges; place the cover's embroidered top, right side up, again 4" (10 cm) of batting projects from all edges. Quilt all three layers together.
Step Five: Cut out 9" (22 cm)-wide strips of color B for binding. In length two should measure 79" (198 cm) and two 115" (286 cm). Sew the strips together. Finish out the edges in mitered frame.
