Country Path (#24)

Country Path
Cutting:

Background:
2 - 1 5/8" squares
8 - triangles cut with Easy Angle (EA) 1 5/8" strip

Assorted Colors:
4- 2" squares (corners)
12- 1 5/8" squares
8 - triangles cut with EA 1 5/8" strip

1. Sew the 8 light and dark triangles together on the short edge in pairs; join with the 4 - 2" squares as illustrated.  Square up to a 3" finished half square with your EA
2. Place the 2 - 1 5/8" squares on the 2 1/2" square.  Sew on the diagonal (using the stitch and flip method) to make the center square  
3. Join the remaining squares (1 5/8") around the center square.  Square up the center unit to 4 3/4"
4. Add the pieced triangle units to complete the block.  Square up to 6 1/2" if necessary.

This block went together so quickly that I forgot to take more pictures.
