So, 8" finished HST block. Bottom right light color, upper left fabric representing your area, home etc. Swap info on the lighter side.
Is this right?

Ok so maybe this is a dumb question is it a square block consisting of 2 triangles one light the left side and one Dark thr right side 8 1/2" or a triangle so she can take 2 people's triangles to make a square?

Anyway.....I will do whatever the majority decides.

This is the consensus:
Create a block consisting of 2 triangles. ====> 8 1/2 UNfinished for Carsey (It will make 8 finished).
The top left will be dark representative of state/country and the bottom right will be light and contain text.
Visual of block (Note: Not to size 8 1/2"):

Triangle format
I see at the bottom of the tutorial the block was upside down.
Upper left triangle dark, lower right triangle light with text. See pdf attachment.
