Instructions for January/February:
Separate into Light Strips and Dark Strips (can use Jelly rolls)
| Crib | 9 Dark and 9 Light |
| Twin/Lap | 20 Dark and 20 Light |
| Queen | 33 Dark and 33 Light |
From both Light and Dark Strips Cut:
| 4 - 5 1/2 inch strips | Crib: (36 each of Light/Dark) | Twin/Lap: (80 each of Light/Dark) | Queen: (132 each of Light/Dark) |
| 2 - 13 inch strip | Crib: (18 each of Light/Dark) | Twin/Lap: (40 each of Light/Dark) | Queen: (66 each of Light/Dark) |
| 2 - 3 1/2 inch strips | Crib: (18 each of Light/Dark) | Twin/Lap: (40 each of Light/Dark) | Queen: (66 each of Light/Dark) |
Instructions for March:
| Place the 13 1/2" strips light to dark (right sides together) and sew along the length (longside) of both sides. |
|
| Take the light 3 3/4" strips and draw a diagonal line starting 1/2" down from the top right side of the fabric ending 1/2" up on the bottom left side of the fabric. This should be a 45 degree angle so double check your lines before you sew. (The 45 degree angle is important and the gaps at the ends are important. |
|
| Match the 3 3/4" strips light and dark together and sew a scant 1/4" seam on both sides of the line. |
|
Instructions for April:
Take the 3.5" blocks made in step 3 of March, cut along diagonal, press to dark side, and square up to 2.5"
Instructions for May:
With the 13" strips you will need your right triangle ruler. You will be cutting out four 3" triangles and one 2.5" triangle. (See pictures) In the last 2 pictures posted here most of us would just throw these scraps away. For now throw them in a sandwich bag and keep them set aside. (Currently may or may not be used later.)
