** Preparing the Pieces and Sewing the Block ** 

Start by cutting the Color 1  2-1/2" x 30" strip into twelve 2-1/2" squares. Then cut the Color 1 2-7/8" x 11-1/2" strip into four 2-7/8" squares. Stack those 2-7/8" squares and cut them in half once on the diagonal to make eight half square triangles...

   Next cut the Color 2  2-1/2" x 12-1/2" strip into five 2-1/2" squares, then cut the Color 2 2-7/8" x 11-1/2" strip into four 2-7/8" squares. Stack those 2-7/8" squares and cut them once on the diagonal to make eight half square triangles
  Next, using a scant 1/4" seam sew the Color 1 and Color 2 half square triangles right sides together in pairs to make eight half square units. Trim these to measure 2-1/2" if needed...
  Now lay out all the squares and half squares as shown at left. Sew five horizontal rows, alternating pressing direction by row. Join the rows to finish your Domino block!  ...on to Page 2!
