Materials:

fabric A:

• 2 – 12 1/2″ x 6 1/2″ rectangles

fabric B:

• 4 – 6 1/2″ x 6 1/2″ squares

Directions:

Step 1

To start, cut your fabric requirements and label them accordingly. Next, draw a line on the 6 1/2″ x 6 1/2″ squares from corner to corner. After this, take one 12 1/2″ x 6 1/2″ rectangle and pin one 6 1/2″ x 6 1/2″ square on it, then sew down right in the drawn line. Once done, cut it 1/4″ seam away from the stitch line, then press open.

Step 2

Now, take the other 6 1/2″ x 6 1/2″ square and pin it on the other side. Stitch it right into the drawn line, then cut 1/4″ seam away from the stitch line. Press open afterward. Repeat these steps to make another unit, then stack these two together to make the block. Make as many as you need to create your desired quilt size.
