Now repeat the steps you just did for fabric #4, for fabric #5. They are exactly the same. Finger press the fabric back.

Now turn the whole thing over so that the pattern side is up and the fabric is in the correct place on the bottom. Make sure the fabric isn't wrinkled or folded.

Now take your ruler and trim around the paper pattern EXACTLY on the OUTSIDE lines. The inner lines are your sewing lines. This is where you will sew along to sew the pieces together. I trimmed just a bit outside on some of the lines to show you where to do it.

Leave the paper on and turn your piece over. Voila!!

Leave the paper on until the entire block is together, actually until ALL the blocks are together, then gently tear it off. It will tear easily, because of the short stitch length.

Trim the edges EXACTLY on the outer lines.
