Step 2
Place a background square on each end with their lines going toward the right direction, then place the pink strips on the inner corners, and place 2 squares on each end with their lines going toward the direction to the right.
Step 3
Place the green square on the inner corner, then place a background square on the side and a background strip at the top to complete the block, and break them into sections.
Step 4
Stitch them per section and make sure to stitch each background square on top of the print squares along the marked line, then trim off the excess fabric with an ¼ inch seam allowance, and press the seams as you go.
