2020 Second Sat. Sampler begins

Block One

Thank you for joining us on another quilting journey. 

For this block you will need:
4) 4" blue squares
4) 4" red squares
4) 4" background squares
4) 3 1/2" background squares.

Draw a diagonal line on the back of each of the 4" background squares and two of the 4" red squares.

Place the two red squares with two of the blue squares making sure the right sides are together and the outside edges are aligned.  Sew 1/4 inch on each side of the drawn line.  Cut on the line.  Square the triangles to 3 1/2 inches. Clip the excess corners of the seams and press.

Match the 4" background squares to the remaining blue and red squares.  Repeat the process described above to create 8 more half square triangles.

Arrange and sew the half square triangles and 4 corner squares as in the photo at the top of the post to create the block.

Happy sewing!
