Quilt-As-You-Go, in rows, Quilt in progress

 This is a quilt I am working on. I had made 12 Log Cabin blocks, that I set with green alternating blocks with an applique circle. I pieced 4 log cabin blocks and 4 green blocks together into a small top, as shown. I layered it with batting and backing and use water solvable thread to stitch around the perimeter of the quilt part.
The final quilt center will have 3 parts and borders, but as I said it is in progress...

 Here you see the three parts. The middle part is quilted and trimmed.
But stop - not yet.
There is a trick to the trimming. The backing and batting are trimmed to the perimeter stitching line and the top extends 1/4" out. The regular seam allowance will be added to the next part. On the back, backing and batting will butt together. the seam on the back will be covered with a strip.

 Center panel quilted and trimmed, view from the top

Here you see the same panel from the back and the 1/4" seam allowance.

 Here the special ruler I used to trim the panel. This ruler has a metal lip that pushes the top back when you trim the batting and backing.

 Here the ruler flipped over, so you see the metal lip

Because each panel is done that way, this construction technique will allow that the back can have a geometric design too.

More once I have progressed further...
