Sewing Instructions:
Step 1:
Using a ruler and a pencil, draw a diagonal line on the wrong side of
all Color C (cream) 4-7/8" squares.
Step 2:
With right sides together, layer a Color C (cream) 4-7/8" square on a Color A (light orange) 4-7/8" square and sew a 1/4" seam on each side of the diagonal
line that you drew in Step 1. Cut apart on the line and press seam allowances toward the darker fabric. (Two half-square triangle units made.) Repeat Step 2
once more for a total of four Color A/C half-square triangle units.
Step 3: Using a ruler and a pencil, cut each Color B (blue) and Color C (cream) 5-1/4" square twice diagonally.
Step 4: With right sides together, layer
a Color C (cream) triangle on a Color B (blue) triangle and stitch together along one short side. Press seam allowance toward the darker fabric. Repeat seven times more for a total of eight B/C triangles.
Step 5: With right sides together, layer a B/C triangle on another B/C triangle and stitch together along the longest side. Press the seam allowance to one side. Repeat three more times for a total of four B/C quarter-square triangles.
Step 6: Using the block image at the top of
the page as your guide, arrange the nine block units. Sew them first into rows,
pressing the seams of the top and bottom rows away from the center and the seams of
the middle row toward the center. Sew rows together to finish the block and
press seams toward the center.
Your block should
measure 12-1/2" at this point. It will measure 12" when it is sewn into the
quilt.
