Just Takes 2™ Schoolhouse Quilt – Block 6

Brenda continues to face daily challenges with her husband’s care so today’s Just Takes 2 block is available here and at Sentimental Stitches. We’d like to thank you for your patience and understanding. I’m sure you’d all agree – family comes first!

You’ll start with squares of the three fabrics used in the block. You’ll get two quarter square triangle units from the two red, one white and one red print fabric shown. Draw a diagonal line on the wrong side of the red solid squares.

Sew 1/4″ away from the drawn line on both sides of it. Cut on the drawn line to get the half square triangles we’ll use in the next step.

Press the seam allowance toward the red solid fabric.

Draw a diagonal line on the wrong side of the red and white half square triangles. Match them with the red solid and red print ones. You’ll see how the seams just nestle together for a perfect match.

Stitch 1/4″ away from the drawn line on both sides of it. Cut the units apart on the drawn line.

Voila! Quarter square triangle units with three colors of fabric and they’re all in the right place for putting your block together.

Here’s a closer look at the block. You can see where the quarter square triangles go.

Let’s get stitching –
