This makes a 12" block! This one's a tad
trickier than some,
involving a few set in seams, but follow the directions carefully, and it's still do-able! |

Start by sewing the B and BRev pieces together in
pairs, using SCANT 1/4" seams. Stop sewing at a point 1/4" from the inner edge
of the "V" where they come together. Make eight pairs. In the "V" of
each pair, set in an F piece, sewing right sides together. Sew from the other edge to a
point 1/4" from the point of the "V". Keep needle down in fabric...

|
|
Then fold the unit over towards you, swinging the
remaining un sewn side of the F piece up 'til it lines up with the un
sewn side of the BRev
piece. Stitch to edge. Do this with all of the B/BRev pairs...
|
|
|
Now sew an A square to the left side of the
previously made unit, again sewing from the outer edge to a point 1/4" from the lower
edge. Sew another B/BRev unit to the bottom of the A square, sewing again from the outer
edge in to a point 1/4" from the edge of the square. Keep the needle down in the
fabric...

|
Fold the unit over towards you and line up the
two un sewn edges of the B and BRev pieces. Stitch from the 1/4" point where you left
off, to the edge. Make four units like this... |
|
|
To the corner of each of the previously made four
units, sew on an E triangle... now
