Sewing Instructions:
Step 1:
Using a ruler and a pencil, draw a diagonal line on the wrong side of all
Fabric 4 (cream) 3-7/8" squares, and eight Fabric 1 (red) 3-1/2"
squares.
Step 2:
With right sides together, layer a Fabric 4 (cream) 3-7/8" square on a Fabric 1
(red) 3-7/8" square and sew a 1/4" seam on EACH side of the diagonal line that
you drew in Step 1. Cut apart on the diagonal lines. Press seams to darker
fabric and trim points. Repeat once more for a total of FOUR red/cream
half-square triangles.
Step 3: Place a Fabric 1 (red) 3-1/2"
square on the right end of a Fabric 4 (cream) 3-1/2" x 9-1/2" rectangle (right
sides together) as shown below. Stitch a seam on the diagonal line that you
drew Step 1. Trim the fabric above the sewn line to 1/4". Repeat on the left
end and press seams toward the red fabric.
Step 4: Using your ruler and rotary cutter,
cut the two Fabric 2 (pink) 3-7/8" squares once diagonally, as shown
below:
Step 5: Using your ruler and rotary cutter,
cut the the Fabric 1 (red) 4-1/4" square and the Fabric 3 (green) 4-1/4"
square twice diagonally, as shown below:
Step 6: Sew a Fabric 1 (red)
triangle to a Fabric 3 (green) triangle together as shown below. Press seams
toward the darker fabric and trim point. Repeat for a total of four Fabric
1/Fabric 3 triangles.
Step 7: Sew a Fabric 2 (pink) triangle to the long side of a Fabric 1/Fabric 3
triangle as shown below. Press seam toward the Fabric 2 triangle. Repeat for a
total of four tri-color triangle units.
Step 8: Arrange the Fabric 1 3-1/2" squares
and the tri-color triangle units (from Step 7) as shown below. Sew into rows
and press seams away from the tri-color triangles. Sew the rows together to
form the center of the block. Press seams away from the center row.
Step 9: Sew a Fabric 1/Fabric 4 half-square
triangle (Step 2) to each side of a Fabric 1/Fabric 4 rectangle, as shown below.
Repeat for a total of two.
Step 10: Sew a Fabric 1/Fabric 4 rectangle
to each side of the block center and press seams toward the
rectangles.
Step 11: Sew the rows that you made in Step
9 to the top and bottom to finish the block. Press seams toward the outside of
the block.
Your block should
measure 15-1/2" at this point. It will measure 15" when it is sewn into the
quilt.
