Cut the Color 1 and Color 3 3-7/8" squares in half once on
the diagonal to make two half square triangles of each. Cut the Color
1 and Color 3 4-1/4" squares in half on BOTH diagonals to
make four quarter square triangles of each...
Now cut the Color 2 and Color 4 1-1/2" x 19" strips
into four 1-1/2" x 2-1/2 rectangles and six 1-1/2" squares
of each. Cut the Color 2 and Color 4 2" x 4" strips
into two 2" squares of each...
Next cut the Color 5 1-1/2" x 13" strip into eight
1-1/2" squares. Cut the Color 5 4-1/4" square in half
on BOTH diagonals to make four quarter square triangles...
(Use all scant 1/4" seam allowances now and throughout the block
making!) Sew the Color 2 and Color 4 2" squares together to
make one four patch unit for the block's center.
Sew two four patch units using the Color 2 and Color 5
1-1/2" squares. Sew a Color 4 rectangle to the side of the
four patches with Color 2 in them. Sew Color 2 small squares to the
end of two Color 4 rectangles Add the square -plus-rectangle
strips to the top of the four patches. (Repeat this to make two more
units using Color 2 rectangles and Color 4 small squares instead-not
shown)...on to Page 2!
