How to Make Flora Quilt Block

Step 1:

Take the 2 7/8” squares. Place the 3 pieces of fabric F, 1 piece of fabric D, and 1 piece of fabric C on your working surface. Place 2 fabric A squares on top of two fabric F squares, then place fabric E square on top of the last fabric F square. Place the remaining fabric A squares on top of fabric D and C.

Draw diagonal lines from corner to corner on all sets. Sew ¼” away from both sides of the line. Cut directly on the lines. Press and trim to 2 ½” squares. You should have 10 HST in 4 color combinations.

Step 2:

Take a 4 ½” square of fabric F, then place a 3 7/8” square of fabric A on the left corner. Draw a diagonal line from the top right to the bottom left on the smaller square. Sew on the diagonal line. Cut ¼” away from the seam and press. Repeat with a 3 7/8” square of fabric A on the opposite corner.

Step 3:

Get a 2 ½” square of fabric A, a FA HST, and join a 2 ½” square of fabric F. Sew them together.

Step 4:

Take a 2 ½” x 4 ½” rectangle of fabric E and join a FE HST. Join the previous strip to the left side.
