I love this quilt and have started a similar one for my daughter’s first ‘big girl’ bed. It’s my first attempt at a quilt that needs to be (at least approximately) a certain size.

Now my question is: Any advice or tips for stacking up the squares and sewing them together? I’m planning on stacking each row from left to right, then sewing the rows together from top to bottom. But am open to tips from folks who have done such things! Thanks.

I also forgot to tell you, but you might know already, that beside being a type of pasta, “farfalle” actually means “butterflies”.
So the name really fits!!

This quilt is gorgeous. I love simple and understated, and this fits the bill perfectly. A good contrast to your string quilt top.

I am so in love with this quilt! I have a scrap bin that I am pretty attached to, I’m thinking this quilt could be the solution.
Beautiful!
