Gosling Quilt Block
Cutting Requirements for 12″ finished block (scant 1/4″ seam allowance):
- Aqua: Cut FOUR (4) 3 3/8″ squares. (These are paired with the Gray 3 3/8″ squares which will create EIGHT (8) Half-Square Triangles.)
- Purple: Cut FOUR (4) 3 3/8″ squares. (These are paired with the White 3 3/8″ squares which will create EIGHT (8) Half-Square Triangles.)
- Purple: Cut TWO (2) 3 3/8″ squares. Then cut the squares diagonally, corner-to-corner, ONE (1) time. Will yield TWO (2) triangles per square. (These are paired with the results of the Gray 3 3/8″ squares. Once they’re sewn together they’ll be the FOUR (4) corners of this quilt block.)
- Purple: Cut TWO (2) 3 3/8″ squares. Then cut the squares diagonally, corner-to-corner, ONE (1) time. Will yield TWO (2) triangles per square. (These are paired with the results of the Gray 3 3/8″ squares which will create ONE (1) Quarter-Square Triangle. Then it’s flanked by the results of the White 3 3/8″ squares which will create ONE (1) Square in a Square in the center of this quilt block.)
- Gray: Cut FOUR (4) 3 3/8″ squares. On the back side of the squares draw a diagonal line, corner-to-corner, ONE (1) time. (These are paired with the Aqua 3 3/8″ squares which will create EIGHT (8) Half-Square Triangles.)
- Gray: Cut TWO (2) 3 3/8″ squares. Then cut the squares diagonally, corner-to-corner, ONE (1) time. Will yield TWO (2) triangles per square. (These are paired with the results of the Purple 3 3/8″ squares. Once they’re sewn together they’ll be the FOUR (4) corners of this quilt block.)
- Gray: Cut ONE (1) 3 3/8″ square. Then cut the square diagonally, corner-to-corner, ONE (1) time. Will yield TWO (2) triangles. (These are paired with the results of the Purple
3 3/8″ squares which will create ONE (1) Quarter-Square Triangle. Then it’s flanked by the results of the White 3 3/8″ squares which will create ONE (1) Square in a Square in the center of this quilt block.) - White: Cut FOUR (4) 3 3/8″ squares. On the back side of the squares draw a diagonal line, corner-to-corner, ONE (1) time. (These are paired with the Purple 3 3/8″ squares which will create EIGHT (8) Half-Square Triangles.)
- White: Cut TWO (2) 3 3/8″ squares. Then cut the squares diagonally, corner-to-corner, ONE (1) time. Will yield TWO (2) triangles per square. (These triangles will flank the Purple/Gray Quarter-Square Triangle in the center of this quilt block. Once it’s all sewn together it’ll create ONE (1) Square in a Square.)
- White: Cut ONE (1) 7 1/4″ square. Then cut the square diagonally, corner-to-corner, TWO (2) times. Will yield FOUR (4) triangles.
