Step 2:
Get one square and a solid color strip.
Place them right sides together and sew a quarter of an inch seam allowance.
you’re able to sew as many squares as the strip will allow.
Repeat on the bottom with 3 more pieces of strip units.
ensure not to overlap each one.
After that, cut them apart again and press them with an iron to make blocks.
Take another 2 1/2 square and sew it on the other side diagonally.
Step 6:
Trim off the outside corners of the block and press with an iron.
Sew a background strip on the side of half triangle square, cut the excess, and press.
Do the same on the other side.

Now, you have a bear paw block.
Make 3 more blocks to make the big block.
For the outer edge, sew the left 2 1/2 squares together.
