eo-4 Sagebrush Perspective Top Assembly

To assemble the top, each row is stitched together first. Then, the rows are sewn to one another - attempting to maintain a random stagger between each. Finally, the color block is trimmed to a 30" square.


A couple of surprises from this process: first, the shadow piece ends up being a pretty tiny part of most of the squares. Second, as the blocks size shrinks, I did not do a very good job of making sure the pentagon size was reduced by an equal amount. As a result, the top blocks seems just more closely spaced.

After assembling the color block, a white border was added. The border uses a 7" strip on three sides and a 9" strip on the bottom side.
