Start with 2.5" squares. You will need FIVE "star-colored" ones and TWENTY (20) dark ones to make the background for ONE Block2:
I sewed the dark squares to the right side of each rectangle and then pressed:
Then, I laid everything out again:
After making sure that everything was right, I sewed the FOUR "star point" squares to FOUR of the "geese" rectangles:
Next, I chain-sewed the remaining background squares...
... That's AFTER "double-sewing" the first set of triangles!
What comes next? Why, "double-sewing" the second set of triangles, of course:
... Just to make sure everything is going the right direction and assemble the "double geese" sections for the corners and sew the block together like a traditional 9-Patch:
Good luck!!
