I plan to set 8 by 9, so will make 72 blocks to make a quilt 80 by 90 inches
Cutting
Solids:
Nine 2 1/2 inch squares
Prints:
Four rectangles 4 1/2 by 2 1/2 inches
Eight 2 1/2 inch squares
Layout block with the rectangles horizontal in the four corners
Sew into rows
Press top and bottom rows to the solid squares
Press center row away from the center square
Press second and fourth rows away the center square
Sew into block, press away from the center row
I will be rotating every other block when I put together the top so all seams will nest.
My directions for a traditional block. Use at your pleasure.
