Sew the very center strip out of your Color 1, 3 and 4 2-1/2" squares, then add two Color1/Color 3 strips to the sides of that center strip. Sew a Color 4 2-1/2" x 6-1/2" strip to the top and bottom of that unit... |
|
|
Now add a Color 2/ Color 3/ Color 1/ Color 4 strip to each side of the previously made unit... |
|
|
Next add a Color 3/ Color 2/ Color 4 strip to each side of the larger unit...to complete the block! Note that this is virtually the same as a Double Irish Chain, but because of the Color layout, somewhere back in history, it took on a new name! |
