This makes a 12" block! A 1900 block! Please abide by the Terms and Conditions of use! :o) |
|
It's great for baby, as shown here, but also a nice block for other quilts! |
|
** Preparing the Pieces and Sewing the Block ** |
|
|
Cut the Color 1 3-1/2" x 21" strip into six 3-1/2" squares. Cut the Color 1 3-7/8" square in half on the diagonal to make two half square triangles... |
|
|
Then cut the Color 2 3-1/2" x 10-1/2" strip into three 3-1/2" squares. Cut the Color 2 7" x 13" strip into four 3-1/2" x 6-1/2" rectangles. Cut the Color 2 6-7/8" square in half on the diagonal to make two half square triangles. You only need ONE of these for one block... |
|
|
First sew two pairs of Color 1/Color 2 squares together, using a scant 1/4" seam. Press seam allowances towards the darker fabric... |
|
|
Then join these units to make the center four patch square, again using a scant 1/4" seam. Press seam to one side... |
