    Block # 15

    1. T # 5 Dark Cut one 3-1/2 " square.

    2. T # 12 Dark Cut one 3" square, Cut in half diagonally.

    3. T # 12 Light Cut three 3" Squares, cut in half diagonally.

    4. T # 7 Dark Cut a strip 2-3/8" x 10" long then cut every 2-3/8" to get four 2-3/8" squares then cut in half diagonally.

    Note: Be careful with the bias edges on this block.

    Really starch your fabric well to help keep the edges from
    stretching.

    I traced the templates w/seam allowances included onto freezer
    paper then sewed thru paper and fabric-removed the freezer paper from the corners so it wouldn't be sewn under the folded area. It took a little longer but I was very pleased with the results.

    1. T # 3 Light Cut two 2-7/8" squares. Mark a line diagonally- set aside.

    2. T # 3 Med Cut two 2-7/8" squares. set aside.

    #. T # 1 Dark Cut a strip 2-1/2" x 10-1/2" long then into 2-1/2" squares.

    4. T # 1 Med Cut one 2-1/2" square.

    Take one T # 3 light and one T # 3 Med with right sides facing
    sew a SCANT 1/4"seam on both sides of the marked line. Cut in half on the marked line. Press then open and press again. Try not to stretchthe square. Now is the time to square up this square if needed.
