Now that you have your fabric ready, it is time to start cutting. Stack your squares on top of each other alternating pattern and plain. Try to keep them exactly aligned. Depending on your rotary cutter, you may need to do three stacks. Place a couple of pins in the stack(s) to hold them in place.
Cut a 4" strip from one side of the stacked squares and move it to one side. Cut another 4 " strip from the bottom of the large rectangle. Move it away from the remaining fabric. Take the top square and place it at the bottom of the pile(s).
Sew a plain rectangle to the bottom of the patterned square.
Sew the other plain rectangle to the left side of the joined fabric. (This photo shows pattern fabric on plain block which will be your next step)
Repeat the previous steps using the plain block as centre and pattern for the side.
Repeat these two steps until all the sections have been joined. Note: when sewing, make sure seam is folded to the pattern fabric.
Press all blocks.
Blessings,
