Don’t forget!!! You can use the cut off corners when following the shoulder instructions in Step #4 to make these bonus 2.5″ half square triangles! I cut first and then sew along the cut edge to make mine. But you could also sew a seam 1/2″ away from your diagonal seam at the same time. And then cut between the two seams.
You can click here to go to the Ugly Christmas Sweaters Quilt Along page for all the details. On that page you will find the layouts and quilt sizes and also see the full schedule.
A quilt along is always more fun than quilting alone.
