Scrap Block #34


What you need:

Color fabric:
  • 2 - 4 3/8" squares
  • 2 - 2" x 6 1/2" strips
  • 4 - 2" squares
White fabric:
  • 2 - 4 3/8" squares
  • 2 - 2" x 6 1/2" squares



Make the half square triangles (HST). Lay a white 4 3/8" square on top of a color 4 3/8" square. Mark a diagonal line along the squares, then sew 1/4" away from both sides of the line. Cut along the line. Press open and trim to measure 3 1/2" square.




Repeat this with the remaining pair of 4 3/8" squares so you have a total of 4 HSTs.


Sew together the 2" squares to make the four patch block.





Sew together the 2" x 6 1/2" strips in pairs, one white fabric strip and one color fabric strip per pair.


Assemble the block.






15 blocks to go!
