Easy Corner Triangles on a Rectangle...

Well hello again!...are you ready for another easy corner triangle tutorial?

I sure hope so because that's what I've got for you today....

so sharpen your pencils and start

your rotary cutters !

This block is made up of rectangles and squares.
 I think it's a really 
fun and easy block to make

with this method.

First cut 8 - 2" x 3 1/2" rectangles. 
Then cut 16 - 2" squares that will become the triangles on each end of the rectangles. 

Lay out the pieces on your design board the way you would like to sew them together.  

It takes one rectangle and 2 squares for

each segment.

You know the drill by now...place a square on each end of the rectangle with right sides together and stitch from corner to corner.

This block is easy but can be

a little tricky...

if you don't pay attention which direction that you are stitching from

corner to corner...

make sure that you refer to a picture 

or your drawing often to

keep from making mistakes...

Notice that you do need to sew half in the opposite direction

in order for the block to work.

Fabric Used:

Red Dot = Sew Cherry

Red Floral = New Old Lecien

Pink Dot = Japanese

Pink Floral = Simply Sweet

White = Nantucket Summer

Okay...there you go.

Another easy method to sew an otherwise 

difficult block.
