Once they’re sewn together they’ll flank the results of the White 8 3/8″ squares which will create FOUR (4) Flying Geese.)
Cerise: Cut ONE (1) 5 3/8″ square. Then cut the square diagonally, corner-to-corner, TWO (2) times. Will yield FOUR (4) triangles. (These triangles will flank ONE (1) side of the results of the Cerise 4 3/4″ squares. Once they’re all sewn together they’ll create FOUR (4) Flying Geese in the center of this quilt block.)
White: Cut FOUR (4) 4″ squares. (These are the FOUR (4) corners of this quilt block.)
White: Cut ONE (1) 8 3/8″ square. Then cut the square diagonally, corner-to-corner, TWO (2) times. Will yield FOUR (4) triangles. (These triangles are flanked on ONE (1) side by the results of the Pink 5 3/8″ squares + the results of the Cerise 5 3/8″ squares. Then they’re flanked on ONE (1) other side by the results of the Cerise 5 3/8″ squares + the Cerise 3 1/8″ squares. Once they’re all sewn together they’ll create FOUR (4) Flying Geese.)
