BLOCK INSTRUCTIONS

Step 1 – Make Templates

Using the inset circle tutorial, make the necessary circle templates.

Templates needed:

    • 8″ circle
    • 3.5″ circle
    • 2.5″ circle

 

Step 2 – Inset Circles

Using the Inset Circle Tutorial, place the 8” circle template so the edge of the circle is 3 ⅛” away from the left edge and 3” away from the bottom edge of the background square. Follow the inset circle tutorial to inset the 9” pieced square.

 

 

Using the 3 ½” Circle Template, place the template so it’s 3 ¼” from the Left side of the block and 5 ¼” from the top. Notice that the template should be ironed onto the back of the block. Again, follow the inset circle tutorial to inset the 5” piece of fabric.

 

 

Using the 2 ½” circle template, place the template so the circle is 6 ¼” from the left side and 1 ¾” from the top. Inset the 4” piece of fabric.

 

 

Step 2 – Finish Block

Press and trim the background to 18 ½” square.
