Quilting to me:

"In this crazy fast and furious world we live in I believe it is our responsibility to take time for ourselves, even if it is once a week or month. Doing what you love is one way slow the craziness down. I like to think I'm doing what I love."

2013 Mystery Quilt

 
July Block
As before with the last 2 blocks you will
need 3 fabrics.
Also the 4 corner blocks should be solid
squares not half squares as shown
in the diagram.
 
Fabric cuts for July Block:
 
Dark fabric:
2       6 3/4" squares
2      3 3/8" squares 
4       3" squares
 
Medium fabric:
2      6 3/4" squares
2     3 3/8" squares
 
Light fabric:
4     6 3/4" squares
 
Using the method I gave you in May
for making half square triangles,
put 2 of the light6 3/4" squares with
2 of the dark 6 3/4" squares
& 2 of the light 6 3/4" squares with
2 of the medium 6 3/4" squares.
This will give you 16 light a dark squares and
16 light and medium squares.
 
You will need 4 --- 3 3/8" squares of
both medium and dark squares.
Use the 3 3/8" squares in medium and
dark squares to make half square triangles.
 
Layout your 36 squares according to the
layout below for the block.
 
 Remember the 4 --- 3" squares go in the
corners instead of the light and dark squares
as you did in your last 2 blocks.
 
Happy Quilting
