I drew the layout on graph paper and because of the way I wanted the layout to be, with the blocks on point, I decided it would be easier to make the blocks separately and then appliqué them onto the background. I didn't quilt them separately, the entire quilt was assembled and then quilted. When it came to the outer scroll border and the letters, I used the same free motion embroidery technique I had used for my second quilt, \u003cstrong\u003e\"Alpha Block Celebration\"\u003c\/strong\u003e.
