It beats sewing one square at a time. When cutting leave extra row on each side to hold. Well use it again

I did my first watercolor quilt and used this fusible layout grid to place the squares. Being a rookie I tried to lay the entire pattern. Well, then I could not get it to the ironing board to fuse it. The next thing I tried was laying it out in sections on the ironing board, fusing it and then laying out the next section. This seemed to work pretty well - or so I thought. I sewed my seams after fusing without cutting each square. This is where the problems began.First, I had not been as precise as necessary to insure a consistant seam. Some of my tiny squares did not get picked up. The more I sewed the smaller the squares became because I had to be sure to pick them all up. Just think, if one square was set in 1/8 in more than the others of the row, they would all need that much more allowance to keep the seam straight. Fine.My next problem was the bulk of each seam. By the time I had sewn the horizontal and vertical seams without cutting I had a ropey feel to the work.Re-do! I finished my first project and swore never to use the layout grid again. Big mistake. I had so many fraying tiny squares that I then came up with a final and very successful idea. How about using the fusing in strips! I layed out the entire pattern then cut one strip of squares of fusing. They were easy to handle and fuse on the ironing board. I proceeded in that fashion through all 24 lines, numbering them as I went. Then, I cut each square, fusing attached, back to the edge of the material. This took away any possibility of setting a square on the fusing with a tilt, or inconsistant edge. Now I had wonderful single squares with great fusing. I then sewed each square together, one at a time, then when I had rows, matched the seams and sewed row to row.This made a perfect piece, with each seam exactly on point and each row flat. With that in mind, I suppose one does not really need the grid part of the fusing, however, it came in handy even though I ended up cutting and sewing the long way.I recommend the layout grid for piece placement, texture and body. I was not able to use it as a one-stop constuction tool, but that was probably me. I found a way to use this to its best advantage. I would recommend it.

Do yourself a favor and count the number of blocks you need, pin where you need to cut, and then count again before cutting. Wish I had!

I purchased a watercolor quilt kit, and as suggested, I purchased this Quilt Fuse. It made the process of laying out 2 inch squares soooo much easier. As suggested in the quilt kit instructions, we laid two beach towels under the grid, laid out the squares, and LIGHTLY pressed them down on the Quilt Fuse. As a result, the Fuse's hand was soft, so it was easy to sew along the lines-- and my seams are straight. It all turned out beautifully!
