Grandfather’s Choice Quilt Block

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

• Red: Cut ONE (1) 9″ square.
• Red: Cut TWO (2) 3 3/4″ squares. On the back side of each square draw a diagonal line, corner-to-corner, ONE (1) time.
• White: Cut TWO (2) 3 3/4″ squares. (These will be paired with the Red 3 3/4″ squares to create half-square triangles.)
• White: Cut FOUR (4) 3 3/4″ squares. Then cut the squares diagonally, corner-to-corner, ONE (1) time. You will end up with TWO (2) triangles per square.
