2009 SPRING Mystery
"The Case of the Accidental Amish"
Merry Mayhem's Case #105

Part 1 continued:  GETTING STARTED
*Draw an "X" on the wrong side of each of your 7 3/4" Fabric 1
squares.

*Layer your
Fabric 1 and Fabric 2 7 3/4" squares right sides
together.  Then sew an accurage 1/4" seam on BOTH sides of
each diagonal line you just drew.

*Press flat, then cut
EXACTLY 3 7/8" from one side of the sewn
squares as shown in the center diagram at right.  Then cut
EXACTLY 3 7/8" from the top (or bottom) edge to make FOUR 3
7/8"
squares.

*Now cut on each of the diagonal lines you drew so you will have
EIGHT half square triangle units from each pair of Fabric 1 and
Fabric 2
squares.

*Press seams toward the darkest fabric.  You should now have 96
squares, each measuring 3 1/2" by 3 1/2" (unfinished) if you are
making the
Nap Size quilt; or 320 squares if you are making the
Queen Size quilt.
