Press the seam allowances toward the white triangles. The pieced unit should measure 2" square, including the seam allowances. Repeat to make a total of four pieced units.
2. Lay out the four pieced units in two pairs (Block Assembly Diagram). Sew together the pairs. Press the seam allowances in opposite directions. Then join the pairs to make a block. Press the seam allowance in one direction.
