BEFORE CLASS: Before Class: PRE-Mark your quilt top with one horizontal, one vertical and two diagonal lines through the Center Point, forming a + and an X, using your marking tool. Then add the 22-½ degree lines using the Every Angle ruler. Finally, mark an 18” square centered over your lines. If you do not have a large enough ruler, that step can be done in class. Be Precise -- the greater your accuracy in drawing the lines through the center point, the more balanced your project will look.
