4) 4” red squares

1) 3 ½” red square

4) 4” pink squares

1) 3 ½” pink square

4) 4” white squares

Start by drawing a diagonal line on the back of all four white (4”) squares as well as two of the pink (4”) squares. 

Place the two pink squares, right sides together and outside edges aligned, with two red 4” squares.  Sew ¼ inch on each side of the line.  Cut apart on the line.  Square to 3½ inches and press open.

Place two of the white 4” squares with two of the Pink 4” squares.  Place the remaining two 4" white squares with the last two 4" red squares.  Sew ¼ inch on each side of the drawn line.  Cut on the line.  Square up to 3½ inches and press open. 

Use the photo above as a placement guide to arrange the squares into a heart shape.   

Sew the squares together.
