SASHING
Sashing is the strips of fabric sewn between quilt blocks, framing each one like a window and giving the overall pattern room to breathe.Find this word in the grid to read its note.
BINDING
The binding is the final flourish: a folded strip of fabric that wraps the raw edges of the quilt, sewn on last, often by hand.Find this word in the grid to read its note.

About The Patchwork Quilt

A patchwork quilt begins with remnants, a square cut from a worn shirt, a triangle snipped from a Sunday dress, a strip of fabric too pretty to discard. Piece by piece, block by block, those remnants are stitched into a pattern that tells a quiet story of patience and care. Draped over a bed or folded at the foot of a chair, a finished quilt carries warmth that goes far deeper than batting and thread.

How to play

  1. 1
    Find a word.Tap its first letter, then tap along to its last. The trail fills in and finishes itself when it spells a word. Or press the first letter and drag.
  2. 2
    Words run in straight lines.Across and down, and on the harder difficulties diagonally and backwards.
  3. 3
    It marks itself.Each word you find takes on its own soft colour on the grid and is crossed off the list.
  4. 4
    Choose a difficulty.Relaxed, Classic or Challenging set those directions and how much the word list helps, never the grid size. Tap the A buttons at the top to enlarge the letters, or pinch the grid.
