Step 2:

Strip unit A. Sew a 2 3/4″ medium strip onto each side of a 5″ background print along the edges. Once done, press the allowances toward the darker print. Repeat to make another strip. Cut each strip into  5″ wide by 9 1/2″, making a total of 12 pieces.

Step 3:

Step 4:

Strip unit C. Sew a 2 3/4″ dark accent strip onto a 7 1/4″ medium print, once done press the seam allowances toward the darker print. Repeat and make 2 more strips. Cut each strip into 2 3/4″ wide by 9 1/2″ pieces, making a total of 36.

Step 5:

Get one unit A and sew a unit C onto each side to make a block. Repeat and make 11 more blocks.

Step 6:

Get one unit B and sew one unit C onto one side. Repeat and make 11 more blocks.

Step 7:

Fold each of the 6″ background blocks in half diagonally and iron to form a folded triangle. Place folded triangles onto two corners of your patchwork blocks. Match up the raw edges and stay stitch the triangle onto the block as close to the edge. Roll the folded edge back toward the corner to make a small curve. Start and stop folded curved section at least 1/4″ away from the raw edges. Top stitch the folded edges.
