Thanks
So glad to have you!!! Please note my couple of screw ups in the initial instructions; trying to get them ironed out so it reads correctly.
I encourage you to watch the video as it gives lots of great instruction on the concept of this block. We're making our bigger however. We're sewing two different sets of 5 strips each in the order listed in the 1st post. Those will be cut into 10 1/2" strip units. Lay right sides together, making sure a Batik strip is on top of a white strip. That's what will create the quarter triangle square in the center!! Cool, huh?? Follow the rest of the instructions in the video. Trim to 12 1/2". Voila!
Now if I could only write the instructions correctly the first time, things would be so much better. Oh well, thanks everyone for putting up with me - - - -
