Country Summer - Second Saturday Sampler

 

For this block you will need:

red - 4) 3" squares

        4) 2 1/2" squares

        1) 4 1/2 " square

tan - 4) 4 1/2" squares

background - 4) 3" squares

            12) 2 1/2" squares

            

Sewing:

Draw a diagonal line on the back of 8) 2 1/2" background squares.  Place one of these a corner of a 4 1/2" tan square, making sure the outside edges are aligned and the right sides are together.  Sew on the diagonal line.  Trim 1/4" from the drawn line and press back.  Repeat the process on a second corner of the tan square.  (Make sure it is not the corner diagonally across from the first.) Create four of these units.

 

Draw a diagonal line on the back of each of 3" background squares.  Place one of these with a 3" red square making sure the outside edges are aligned and the right sides are together. Sew 1/4" on each side of the drawn line.  Square to measure 2 1/2" and press to the red.  Repeat to create 8 half-square triangle units.
