How to Make a Bento Box Quilt Block:
Step 1
Download and print the pattern, then cut the fabric pieces as instructed in the pattern, and label them accordingly. Start laying together the pieces A to D or pink and yellow squares with their right sides facing, then stitch them with ¼ inch, and press the seams open. Do the same steps and join the pieces B and E or pink and yellow rectangles. Next, join the AD unit to the BE unit or the rectangle fabric, and make sure to refer to the diagram for their proper arrangement.

Step 2
Now, join piece F or a large rectangle to the previous block units, then do the same for piece C, and make sure to refer to the pattern each time. Assemble the 4 block units, then stitch them per pair, and stitch the pairs to each other pressing the seams as you go. Once done stitching the block, give it a final press and you’re done. You can now start making more blocks and use them to make a large quilt project.
