How to Make a Faux Cathedral Window Quilt Block:
Step 1
Download the pattern and cut the fabrics according to the sizes instructed in the pattern, then get the dark squares, and fold them in half diagonally to make a triangle.
Step 2
Press the fabric nicely, then assemble the print squares into a 4 patch, and place a folded triangle on top of each square. Adjust the folded triangle so that it forms a diamond at the center, then press them down, pin them in place, and stitch the blocks together.
Step 3
Press the block open, then place a light print square at the center, then rotate it so that it’s shaped like a diamond, fold the edges of the dark fabric over to the light, and pin them down in place. Stitch them near the edges of the curve and you’re done!
