#39 Friendship

This is a really easy block, so you should have it together in no time.

Cutting: 
Colors 1-4
  • 1 - 2" square
  • 1 - 3" finished half square (3 1/2" strip with the easy angle)
Color 5
  • 4 - 3" finished half squares (3 1/2" strip with the easy angle)


Sew the 4 half squres together.  Check to make sure they measure 3 1/2".  Press 2 opposite half squares toward the center; and the remaining 2 toward the outside.

 Place a matching 2" square on the inside corner of the 3 1/2" half square.  Sew corner to corner and trim 1/4" from the seam.  Press the same direction as in the previous step.
Sew the 4 pieces together to complete the block.  I pressed the final seam open, but you may just want to press it to the side.
