When it comes to matching seams, it is very important pin fastidiously prior to stitching. Be sure you use quilting pins that are thinner, longer, and sharper than common pins. Time spent pinning accurately will save time ripping out seams later.

With the seams matching, you can then pin on both facet of the vertical pin and then sew the quilt items collectively.
