Back to Square One – Clue #9

We’re zipping right along here.  September already!

For this month, we’ll be making more log cabin blocks and adding a plain border.  There are two steps .. don’t stop after making the log cabins.

These will be 8″ finished or 8-1/2″ unfinished.  These are almost exactly like what we did in July but those were smaller.   You will again make 24 blocks.

 

Please refer to the July instructions if you need help with the piecing.

Fabric 1:  Cut one of each:

• 1-1/2″ x 2-1/2″ rectangle (G)
• 1-1/2″ x 3-1/2″ rectangle (F)
• 1-1/2″ x 4-1/2″ rectangle (E)
• 1-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ rectangle (D)
• 1-1/2″ x 6-1/2″ rectangle (B)
• 1-1/2″ x 7-1/2″ rectangle (A)

Fabric 2:  1-1/2″ x 3-1/2″ rectangle (F) and 1-1/2″ x 4-1/2″ rectangle (E)

Fabric 3: 1-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ rectangle (D) and 1-1/2″ x 6-1/2″ rectangle (B)

Fabric 5: 1-1/2″ x 7-1/2″ rectangle (A) and 1-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ rectangle (C)

Fabric 6: 1 – 2-1/2″ square (H)

For the second part of this month’s clue, we’ll be adding Border #2.  Use Fabric 2.  These are the cutting measurements:

Sides – 2-1/2″ x 60-1/2″
Top & Bottom – 2-1/2″ x 64-1/2″

Your top should now look like this and should measure 64-1/2″ x 64-1/2″.
