Then stack your Color1 squares, edges aligned, mark a diagonal line, and then cut on this diagonal... |

Do the same with Color 2 squares... |

Sew a Color1 triangle to a Color 2 triangle, right sides together, using a 1/4" seam, pressing seam allowances towards the darker fabric. Make 16 of the half squares. These should measure 3-1/2" ... |

Then, sew them together in the order shown; first make rows, and then sew the rows together...Simple! Simple! Simple!!
