Step 1

Sew squares in the first row together. Press seams in one direction.

Step 2

Sew squares in next row together and press seams in opposite direction to row 1.

Sew row 1 to row 2, carefully matching seams. Seams should butt together easily if seams were pressed in opposite directions. If there are more rows press the seams of each row in alternating directions.
