Now place a Color 1 2-1/2" square lined up with the upper left corner of a Color 3 4-1/2" square, right sides together and all edges aligned. On the back of the top small square draw the diagonal, and sew on this marked line. Cut off the excess seam allowance. Press the remainder towards the center square. Repeat this with another Color 1 small square on the opposing corner. Repeat with another Color 1 small square on the top right corner, and a Color 2 small square on the opposing corner, pressing these last two seams towards the outer triangles.
