Jade: Cut ONE (1) 4 3/8″ square. Then cut the square diagonally, corner-to-corner, TWO (2) times. Will yield FOUR (4) triangles. (These triangles are paired with TWO (2) sides of the White 3″ squares. Which will help create the upper left-hand & the lower right-hand corners of this quilt block.)
Jade: Cut ONE (1) 4 3/8″ square. Then cut the square diagonally, corner-to-corner, TWO (2) times. Will yield FOUR (4) triangles. (These triangles will flank the results of the Teal 3 3/4″ squares which will create TWO (2) Flying Geese.)
Jade: Cut TWO (2) 3 3/4″ squares. Then cut the squares diagonally, corner-to-corner, ONE (1) time. Will yield TWO (2) triangles per square. (These triangles are flanked by the results of the Aqua 4 3/8″ square which will create TWO (2) Flying Geese.)
Jade: Cut FOUR (4) 2 3/8″ x 3 3/8″ rectangles. (These are paired on ONE (1) side with the Aqua/Jade Flying Geese. They are also paired on ONE (1) other side with the Jade/Aqua Flying Geese.)
White: Cut TWO (2) 3″ squares. (These are the upper left-hand & the lower right-hand corners of this quilt block. They are paired with the results of the Jade 4 3/8″ square.)
White: Cut TWO (2) 6 3/8″ squares. Then cut the squares diagonally, corner-to-corner, TWO (2) times. Will yield FOUR (4) triangles per square. (These triangles are paired with the Yellow 3″ squares.)
