Wedding March Quilt Block

Cutting Requirements for 12″ finished block (precise 1/4″ seam allowance):

• Blue: Cut FOUR (4) 1 7/8″ squares. (These are paired with the White 1 7/8″ squares, which will create ONE (1) Nine-Patch, see #2 on the Quilt Block Diagram below. They’ll also help create the center of this quilt block.)
• Blue: Cut EIGHT (8) 1 7/8″ x 4 1/2″ rectangles. (These are paired with the White 1 7/8″ rectangles, see Step #3 on the Quilt Block Diagram, as needed for this quilt block.)
• Blue: Cut EIGHT (8) 2 1/8″ squares. Then cut the squares diagonally, corner-to-corner, ONE (1) time. You’ll end up with TWO (2) triangles per square. (These will flank the White 1 7/8″ squares & the results of the White 3 1/2″ squares. See #1 on the Quilt Block Diagram below. They’ll also help create the FOUR (4) corner’s of this quilt block.)
• White: Cut FIVE (5) 1 7/8″ squares. (These are paired with the Blue 1 7/8″ squares which will create ONE (1) Nine-Patch, see #2 on the Quilt Block Diagram below. They’ll also help create the center of this quilt block.)
• White: Cut TWELVE (12) 1 7/8″ squares. (These are flanked by the results of the Blue 1 7/8″ squares. See #1 on the Quilt Block Diagram below. FOUR (4) of them will be the FOUR (4) corner’s of this quilt block.)
