Cut a Dark and Medium 6 7/8"

square then cut on diagonal.

Cut 4 Light, 2 Dark and 2 Medium

2 7/8" squares, then cut on diagonal.

Make half square triangles

using 4 dark and 4 light triangles,

sew together along long edge.

Square to 2 1/2".

This is the view from the back.

Layout and sew together as shown.

Take care in pressing to aid in

achieving precise points.  Press seams

in columns 1 & 3 to the top and seams

in columns 2 & 4 to the bottom.

Pin seams, "locking" the intersections

of the seams together and sew.

I pressed these seams open

to reduce bulk and then

trimmed long edges.

Sew large triangles to center unit

along long edges.  Refer to photo for placement.
