** Preparing the Pieces and Sewing the Block ** |
 |
Start by cutting the Color 1 3-1/2" x 14" strip into four 3-1/2" squares. You can "fussy cut" these if you prefer to get a similar motif from your Color 1 fabric is a specific location in the square... |
|
|
Cut the Color 2 2" x 8" strip into four 2" squares... |
|
|
Then cut the Color 3 4" x 12" strip into twelve 2" squares... |
|
|
Using a scant 1/4" seam( now and throughout the block making!) sew together three Color 3 and one Color 2 2" square to make four of the corner units shown at left. Press seams to darker side where applicable. These should each measure 3-1/2"... |
|
|
Now lay out the pieced corner units, the Color 1 squares and the Color 3 3-1/2" square as shown at left. Sew three horizontal rows, alternating pressing directions by row. Sew the rows together to finish up the block!...on to Page 2!
