Memory Lane June 2009 - Installment #6 Quilt Block Name: Flying X Block Unfinished Size: 12-1/2" Number of Blocks to Make: One Printing Choices: Printer Friendly Webpage or PDF File. Cutting Instructions:
Sewing Instructions: (Note: Sewing Instructions are for 1 block.) Step 1: Sew a Color A (green) 3-7/8" triangle and a Color B (cream) 3-7/8" triangle together as shown below. Press the seam allowances toward the darker fabric and trim points. Make 4. (This unit should measure 3-1/2" x 3-1/2".) Step 2: Sew a Color D (brown) 3-7/8" triangle and a Color B (cream) 3-7/8" triangle together as shown below. Press the seam allowances toward the darker fabric and trim points. Make 4. (This unit should measure 3-1/2" x 3-1/2".) Step 3: Arrange the Step 1 units, the Step 2 units, the Color B (cream) 3-1/2" squares, and the Color C (red) squares as shown below. Sew into rows and press the seam allowances for rows 1 and 3 to the right and press the seam allowances for rows 2 and 4 to the left. Next, sew the rows together to finish the block. Press the seam allowances to one side. (Note: to reduce bulk in the middle of the pinwheel, you can press the seam open.) Make 1. (The block will measure 12-1/2" at this point. It will measure 12" when it is sewn into the quilt.)
Part 2 - Forty Half-Square Triangles Note: This part of the pattern was corrected on June 8, 2008 at 5:00 pm Eastern Daylight Savings Time. If you printed the pattern out before then, you'll need reprint or simply write in the changes that I've highlighted in yellow below. Cutting Instructions:
* Step 4: Sew a Color G (dk blue) 6-7/8" triangle and a Color F (dk cream) 6-7/8" triangle together as shown below. Press the seam allowances toward the darker fabric and trim points. Make 40. (This unit should measure 6-1/2" x 6-1/2".) That's all for this month! Save the Part 2 units for later. They will be used in the borders.
