Press all seams as you sew. Cut and stitch a sample block before cutting pieces for the entire quilt. You will need a total of sixteen sets of eight matching squares. Fold each square in half along one diagonal, wrong sides together. Keep sets of eight in separate piles.
Press strips open toward the outside of the block.
You have completed round one. Pin in place. Using the remaining four folded squares for each block, place one in each corner as shown in Diagram 6 . Pin in place. Arrange your blocks in four rows of four blocks each.
