Second Sat. Sampler block 12

  Here is block twelve.   You're almost done!
 
 

For this block you will need:
1) 4 1/2 inch blue center
4) 2 1/2 x 4 1/2 gray rectangles
4) 2 1/2 inch squares of background
8) 3 inch background squares
4) 3 inch navy
4) 3 inch gray
2) 3 inch medium blue
2) 3 inch light blue










Draw a diagonal line on the back of the 3" background squares, two of the light blue squares.

Match 4 of the 3" background squares with the 4 navy.

Match the 4 remaining 3" background squares with the gray squares.  


Match the  3" light blue with the 3" medium blue squares. 

Sew 1/4 inch on each side of the drawn lines.

Cut on the line.

Square the resulting half square triangles to measure 2 1/2 inches.

Trim off the excess points on the seam and press toward the blue fabric.

Use the photo at the top of the post as a guide to assemble and sew the block together.


We will be starting a new Sampler the second Saturday of April.  A couple of blocks are shown below.








































You can do all twelve blocks for only $12.00.  We are working out the details for the finishing but you know it will look great.

  2. Clearly, I'm a little bit behind but are there instructions posted to finish it all off? I have the squares and a kit, but no instructions about putting it all together.

  3. I have 12 blocks and another stack of fabrics that I think were intended to be the boarder/connecting pieces, but I don't have any instructions for putting it all together. Do you still have these instructions?
