** Preparing the Pieces
and Sewing the Block ** |

|
Using the template provided cut four pant legs and four more in
reverse from the Color 1 8" x 27" rectangle...
|
|

|
From the Color 2 6" x 16" rectangle cut four
small squares, one large square and four triangles...
|
|

|
Sew four pairs of the pant legs together in a seam starting at
the inner edge and sewing to a point 1/4" from the corner edge.
Backstitch at that point...
|
|

|
Now place a small Color 2 square right sides together with a pair of
pants, with its top edge aligned with the left open corner edge. Sew
from the outside to a point 1/4" from the edge of the top square.
Back stitch. Fold and pivot the pants unit right sides together to
line up the remaining un-sewn edge of the Color 2 square with the
right open corner edge. Stitch from the point where we just left off
to the outer edge of the unit. Make four units like this...

Sew Color 2 triangles to the right and bottom of two of the pants
units...
