Step 4: Sew each row of blocks together, and press seams. I like to press my seams in opposite directions. This way they nest together and make lining up the points much easier.
Step 5: Now let's sew the rows together! Match up the seams being careful that the wrapper ends line up with the candy, pin. Sew each row together. Press.

Once all the rows are together, you will end up with one long piece.
Step 6: Trim the panel. Line up your ruler along each side. Trim. You will want to keep a 1/4" seam allowance so the points don't get lost. Just like this!
