*Take those Twelve 9 patches and lay them out on your board
They measure 14 inches square
You are going to cut them into fourths
Lay them out and place the ruler vertically at 7 inches from the edge
Make a slice
DO NOT MOVE THEM
Lay your ruler out 7 inches from the edge horizontally.
Make a slice
You now have 4 - 7 inch by 7 inch blocks from each 9 patch = 48 blocks
*Take the top left and the bottom right squares and twist them so the contrast square in on the outside corner.
And re stitch into a 4 patch block
This block will measure 13 ½ inches
· I will tell you – in my scrappy version ( where I used a LOT of Blues ) I mixed and matched the 7x7 blocks so that it looked more scrappy – but you do NOT have to!
So here is the deal - on the blog - the clues will just be typed in - but in my Groups.io Mystery group ( NOT a facebook page) there will be printable Pdfs... Its just too easy to do it there!!

Not 5 minutes ago I was looking for the 2nd step and VOILA! Here it is! I had a feeling it was going to be slash and sew! I used MANY different blues from my stash! THANKS!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty and I like the way the red center is now dispersed in the block!
