 This block is part of the MQG resource library and can be found using this link (https://www.themodernquiltguild.com/resource/puzzle-patch-block-study/). You need to be a member to be able to see the page.

 For colours, we'll be using solids and doing the colourway in the main instructions. 

Fabric required:

Fabric A: 9x9 square (Green)

Fabric B: 9x9 square (Darker blue)

Fabric C: 9x9 square (Light Blue)

Fabric D: (2) 4.5x4.5 squares (White)

Cutting Instructions:

1. Cut A and B along the diagonal. Cut C into two (9x4.5) rectangles.

Piecing Instructions

1. Join D and C together on the 4.5 end.

2. Sew 1 C-D unit to an A unit (see image for placement) and repeat with a B unit on the other piece.

3. Using a long ruler with a 45 degree marking, Line the edge of the ruler with the edge of the fabric A/B and the 45 marking along the A/B and C-D unit. Cut along the line. You will now have a triangle unit. Repeat with second piece.

5. Join the two units along the slanted edge with the C-D unit at opposite ends of the block. 

6. Trim your block so that it is 12.5x12.5 inches.
