Before we get started with the Girl's Choice quilt block, let me just say that there are lots of ways to assemble it. The method I chose seemed logical to me, but if you're an experienced quilter and want to do it a different way, go for it.
Like other Anniversary Sampler blocks, the Girl's Choice finishes at 12-inches square and will be placed on point in the finished quilt. The fabrics used help me explain the assembly, so choose fabrics that work with your theme. And if you like, feel free to change color value placement to suit your own tastes.
