Now we begin to piece the block's center unit, by sewing the two units
we just made to two opposing sides of the Color 2 3-11/16"
center square. Press seams towards the center square. Now add on the
larger two pieced corner units, pressing seams towards the corner
units...
|
|
|
Sew the shorter Color 2 rectangles to the left and
right of the center unit, pressing seams towards the new strips. Then
sew the longer strips to the top and bottom. Press those last seams
towards the top and bottom strips...

|
|
Lastly, piece the block's small corner squares, and the half squares
into top and bottom block rows as shown at left. Piece side units from
half squares, also shown at left. Sew the side strips to the center
unit, and then add the top and bottom rows...Done!
