I have read and reread many times and I cannot figure out what to do next.
Morton's instructions say "sew on the line or slightly outside"
I'm hoping someone on the Board has made this quilt and can tell me what I'm to do.
Thanks
Hi - I've made lots of snowballs, and yes, the smaller squares are used for "diagonal corners" on the larger square.
Draw a diagonal line on the back of the smaller squares. Position one covering the corner of the plain square, right sides facing. The sew on the marked line, from corner to corner. Fold back to cover the corner, and hey presto - a diagonal corner. Do this on all four corners.
