Materials:
fabric A:
- 2 – 3 1/2″ x 3 1/2″ squares
- 2 – 3 1/2″ x 6 1/2″ rectangles
fabric B:
- 2 – 6 1/2″ x 6 1/2″ squares
fabric C:
- 2 – 3 1/2″ x 3 1/2″ squares
Directions:
Step 1
To start, cut the fabric requirements and label them accordingly (use three different colors of fabric). Now, make two pairs by putting together two 3 1/2″ x 3 1/2″ squares in different colors, pin them to secure, and sew one edge with a 1/4″ seam allowance. Press open afterward. Next, take the rectangles, and sew them on either side of the sewn block. Press open afterward.

Step 2
Now, lay them out with the white squares in the middle, then put the 6 1/2″ x 6 1/2″ squares on two corners to complete the block. Sew the two sides together, then sew both together to create the block. Press it nicely once done sewing. Repeat these steps to create more blocks for your desired quilt size.
