I love the zigzag on the edges and the large diamonds in the center when you combine the blocks.
Read on or watch the video below for full instructions.
Cut 6 pieces of 2 1/2 squares.
Cut the rest into 4 1/2, 6 1/2, and 8 1/2 strips.
Step 2:
Get one color and place a white square on the top.
Draw a diagonal line from one corner to another.
Sew on the line, then trim one side of it with a quarter of an inch seam allowance.
Repeat four more times to make a total of 5 half-square triangles.
Step 3:
Get the remaining 2 1/2 squares and 2 half-square triangles.
Arrange them into a four-patch just as shown below.
Sew them in rows first, then sew them together with a quarter of an inch seam allowance.
verify to line up the white with the print.
Press each strip unit open.
Step 5:
Start to build your block.
Place the 4 1/2 white strip on top of the four-patch.
Next, get the 4 1/2 strip with a half-square triangle and place it on the left.
You will see the pattern as you go.
Sew them together with a quarter of an inch seam allowance.
Repeat with the longer strips until you make the block.
Make a total of 36 blocks.
Step 6:
Get 4 blocks and arrange them so that the whites come together.
Repeat with the other blocks.
You need 3 of these big blocks for each row.
