    Default Partial seams for set-in square

    I'm making a 6" block that has a 3/4" set-in square using the partial seam method. The pattern shows piecing the 4 corner blocks but does not have a good picture of the final side of sewing in the center square! Anybody know of a "pictorial tutorial"?
    Years ago I did a larger one but this is tiny! Maybe I should hand sew the fourth side!
    Thanks for any help!

    It's for a Chain Link block.

    is this the block? Does this tutorial answer your question?

    I am a visual person, so I am not getting an idea of how to help...maybe post a picture of your progress?

    Yes, exactly, that's the one. Thanks! The problem is with the finishing of the partial seam. Her other pictures are very helpful but the final seam is with the block under the sewing machine. I have done this with bigger blocks, but I'd like to see how she lays it out before she sews it with such a small piece!

    The link you put up makes it seem very easy. A pretty pattern.
