Materials:

fabric A (black):

• 1 – 4 1/2″ square
• 2 – 5″ squares

fabric B (printed):

• 4 – 2 1/2″ x 4 1/2″ strips

fabric C (printed):

• 4 – 2 1/2″ x 4 1/2″ strips
• 2 – 5″ squares

Directions:

Step 1

To start, sew the fabric B and C 4 – 2 1/2″ x 4 1/2″ strips into strip sets of twos. Once done, make half-square triangles. Line fabric A and C, right sides together, then cut it diagonally. After this, sew a scant 1/4″ seam allowance on both units, then press them open. Then, trim the half-square triangles into 4 1/2″ squares as well as the strip units.

Step 2

Now, start assembling the block. Lay the fabric A 4 1/2″ square in the center, then put the half-square triangles on all four corners, printed side facing out. Then, take the strip sets and place each in between the half-square triangles, finishing the block. Once done, sew them in rows, then sew those rows together to complete the block. Press it nicely afterward.
