(6) 2 1/2" x WOF strips for the binding

Fabric E, cut:

(3) 2 1/2" x WOF strips, subcut (48) 2 1/2" squares

Fabric F, cut:

(5) 2 1/2" x WOF strips, subcut (72) 2 1/2" squares

Block Assembly

Note: The arrows in figures represent the fabric print direction. Pay attention to the fabric and unit orientations when assembling the various components. Use a 1/4" seam allowance with right sides together (RST) unless otherwise noted.

1. Sew (1) 2" x 11" Fabric B strip to each side of (1) 11" Fabric A square. Sew (1) 2" x 14" Fabric B strip to the top and to the bottom of the Fabric A square to make (1) Block One square (Fig. 1). Trim the block to measure 12 1/2" x 12 1/2". Repeat to make (6) Block One squares total.
2. Place (1) 2 1/2" Fabric F square on the left side of (1) 2 1/2" x 4 1/2" Fabric D strip, right sides together (Fig. 2). Sew across the diagonal of the square from the upper right corner to the lower left corner (Fig. 2). Flip open the triangle formed and press. Trim away the excess fabric from behind the triangle, leaving a 1/4" seam allowance (Fig. 3).
3. Place (1) 2 1/2" Fabric E square on the right side of the 2 1/2" x 4 1/2" Fabric D strip, right sides together (Fig. 4). Sew across the diagonal of the square from the upper left corner to the lower right corner (Fig. 4). Flip open the triangle formed and press. Trim away the excess fabric from behind the triangle, leaving a 1/4" seam allowance to make (1) Unit 1 strip (Fig. 5).
4. Repeat Steps 2-3 to make (24) Unit 1 strips total.
5. Repeat Steps 2-3 and refer to Figure 6 for fabric identification, placement and seam direction to make (24) Unit 2 strips.
6. Sew (1) Unit 1 strip to the left end of (1) Unit 2 strip along the Fabric E sides to make (1) Unit 3 strip (Fig. 7). Repeat to make (24) Unit 3 strips total.
7. Sew (1) 2 1/2" Fabric F square to each end of (1) Unit 3 strip to make the top border. Repeat to make the bottom border. Sew (1) Unit 3 strip to each side of (1) 8 1/2" Fabric C square to make the middle row. Sew together the (3) rows lengthwise to make (1) 12 1/2" Block Two square (Fig. 8). Repeat to make (6) Block Two squares total.
8. Sew (1) Block One square to each side of (1) Block Two square to make Row One (Fig. 9). Repeat to make Row Three.
9. Sew (1) Block Two square to each side of (1) Block One square to make Row Two (Fig. 9). Repeat to make Row Four.
10. Sew together the (4) Rows from SteCentre, lengthwise and in numerical order from top to bottom, to make the 36 1/2" x 48 1/2" Quilt Center (Fig. 9).

Quilt Top Assembly

(Follow the Quilt Layout while assembling the quilt top.)

1. Sew (1) 2" x 48 1/2" Fabric B strip to each side of the Quilt Centre. Sew (1) 2" x 39 1/2" Fabric B strip to the top and to the bottom of the Quilt Centre.
2. Sew (1) 1 1/2" x 51 1/2" Fabric G strip to each side of the Quilt Top. Sew (1) 1 1/2" x 41 1/2" Fabric G strip to the top and to the bottom of the Quilt Top.
3. Sew (1) 5 1/2" x 53 1/2" Fabric H strip to each side of the Quilt Top. Sew (1) 5 1/2" x 51 1/2" Fabric H strip to the top and to the bottom of the Quilt Top.
4. Layer and quilt as desired.
5. Sew the (6) 2 1/2" x WOF Fabric D strips together, end to end with 45-degree seams, to make the binding. Fold this long strip in half lengthwise with wrong sides together and press.
6. Bind as desired.
