Making a Square for a Group Quilt Project

"I decided to write a tutorial on making a group quilt square because I messed up when I made my first square and was embarrassed by it. I've never seen a tutorial for this online. Learning to make a quilt square from a diagram and short directions from people who have been quilting for years is intimidating for a beginner. This tutorial helps beginners understand what is important in making a group quilt square."
