Cut squares in half diagonally to make 4 half square. Now am I makeing a mountain out of a nothing.If you have the issue of the book it is on page 62.

Thanks everyone for your help.
I write on my patterns. If I am having trouble keeping the colors straight I write in what color I am using. Also, when I am buying the fabric I make notes on the pattern which fabric is for which one. This becomes more important the more fabrics you are working with.
