Mystery Block of the Month Step 4

 

Step 4

FIRST

 Cut each block in half directly through the middle. Rotate and repeat the opposite direction.

This will create four units that measure 5 ½’’ x 5 ½’’.

CUTTING

Cut 4 strips 2’’ x 5 ½ ’’ from one fabric for each block.

Cut one square 2’’ x 2’’ for each block.

SEWING

Sew a strip to opposite sides of the square. Press toward the square.

Sew the remaining strips to the side of 2 units. Press toward the strips.

Make 2.

Sew the remaining two units to the opposite side of the strips. Press toward the strips.

Make 2.

Now sew the pieced strip/square/strip unit to the side of the unit/strip/unit. Press toward the strips.

Repeat with the remaining section.

Your blocks are now complete!

Queen Size- 36

Throw Size- 20

NOTE: I used the same fabric for the center square in this step for all blocks. You can also use the same fabric for all the strips for all the blocks, or a different fabric for each block strips.
