First Color Set: Four Blocks

Fabric Print 1 & Fabric Print 2

triple cut quilt blocks The first set of 4 blocks are created using prints 1 and 2. Two blocks are double cut, and two blocks are double-triple cut.

Double Cut: 2 blocks

double cut quilt block 1. Lay one 10" square of Print 1 directly over a 10" square of Print 2. Both fabrics are right side up.

2. Make two cut lines through both layers. They do not have to be parallel, but should be straight lines (refer to following photo).

re-arrange double cut quilt block pieces 3. Re-arrange your pieces so that the center pieces of each square is placed with the other square (refer to following photo).

4. Stitch the sections of each block together. You now have two stitched blocks. Press seams toward the darker fabric.

NOTE: It is not necessary for the seams to be perfectly matched up. These are "crazy blocks", so imperfections are OK. When you square down the block, sides will be straightened and size will be corrected.

DOUBLE CUT: Cut two horizontal lines across the block, cutting through both layers of fabric (refer to following image).

You now have two completed double cut blocks. The image shows the two blocks, stitched together.

Double Triple Cut: 2 blocks

Re-arrange the segments and stitch pieces together.
