Pieced Pinwheels Quilt Block

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

• Lt. Blue: Cut SIX (6) 3 3/4″ squares. On the back side of the squares draw a diagonal line, corner-to-corner, ONE (1) time. (These are paired with the Jade 3 3/4″ squares which will create TWELVE (12) Half-Square Triangles.)
• Jade: Cut SIX (6) 3 3/4″ squares. (These are paired with the Lt. Blue 3 3/4″ squares which will create TWELVE (12) Half-Square Triangles.)
• Jade: Cut SIX (6) 3 3/4″ squares. Then cut the squares diagonally, corner-to-corner, ONE (1) time. Will yield TWO (2) triangles per square. (These are paired with the Lt. Blue/Jade Half-Square Triangles. Once they’re all sewn together they’ll also be the FOUR (4) corners of this quilt block.)
• White: Cut TWO (2) 7 3/4″ squares. Then cut the squares diagonally, corner-to-corner, ONE (1) time. Will yield TWO (2) triangles per square. (These triangles are paired with all of the above Half-Square Triangles & the fabric cuts. Which will create the FOUR (4) Pieced Pinwheels.)
