got it! thanks. i knew there had to be an easy explanation/pattern to it, i just couldn't figure it out the way i was trying to draw the pattern. but sewing the two colors together and then cutting out the template makes perfect sense. the templates you used look like a simple drunkards path template. i would love to use a similar block in the two teenage girl quilts i am making. thanks a lot for sharing.

These two rulers make a 6 inch finished block, but I have seen them in different sizes. I used the B part to cut out ncquilter's butterflies. I sewed a green strip of fabric to an orange strip and then used the A part of the ruler to cut out that piece. I made 4 of the blocks and then sewed them together. I used the same rulers when I made moonrise's block (circle with a square in it), but in that one I used the B section to cut the strips that I had sewn together. Hope this helps.
