MISSION IMPOSSIBLE QUILT

​
​Your mission is to come to next month's meeting prepared to make one mystery block.  You may choose to take your block home with you or leave it to be added to a quilt to be donated to a local non-profit for their use in fundraising. If you accept this mission please follow the directions below.
Block Assembly Instructions

STEP ONE

Choose a light and a dark fabric from your stash and make 2 sets of four matching half square triangle blocks measuring 2 inches finished.  Both sets can be identical or make each set different using coordinating fabrics.
Suitable fabrics for this project:
small prints, tone on tone, small plaids, checks, solids, civil war.

STEP TWO

Look through your scraps for both light and dark fabrics which complement your half square triangle blocks and measure at least 5" X 9".  ALL FABRICS MUST BE WASHED BEFORE BEING USED  to avoid triggering a reaction by any one allergic to the chemicals in fabric.

STEP THREE

Cut additional pieces:
  • 8 (2") matching squares
  • 4 (1 1/2"  by 3 1/2") matching rectangles
  • 1 ( 1 1/2 x 1 1/2")  square
  • 2 (2 1/2") squares  - to be used in border
​Sew pieces together in any pleasing way to resemble the blocks below.  (This is not a star block so be careful in putting the rows together).
