A little Tut On The Wedding Quilt

I have had some enquiries about the construction of the grey and white wedding quilt. I did not have a pattern but it is a super simple design.
I used 10" squares of the two fabrics and sewed them right sides together all around the outer edge with a 1/4" seam as below.
 Then I cut the squares twice corner to corner like so.
Each produces 4 seven inch HST's.
Every other row is reversed.
Sewn together  to make the offset chevron
The king size quilt required 289 squares, 17x17 rows, measuring about 108" square. To see the wedding quilt scroll back a couple of posts.
