Delight! ~A Quiltville Mystery Quilt~ ©Bonnie K Hunter

If there is unit 1-A, there mustbe unit 1-B, right??? Yes,
more square in a square units! But come ON! You are getting SO GOOD
with them by now! And you will be amazed how the different shadings of
these play in the quilt. I swear to you, this is the LAST of them you
will have to do!
For the 1-B Units you will
need:Cutting Directions:
From the cheddar gold cut 120 2-5/8" squares. From the brown cut 480 2.5" half square triangles with the easy angle. *note* As in the previous units, if you are NOT using the easy angle (Why are you still NOT?!?:cD) you can cut 240 2 7/8" squares, and cut them in half diagonally to yield 480 half square triangles. I am using ONE Cheddar/gold and ONE brown in this quilt, but you can scrappy it up if you want to. You can arrange your browns in sets of 4 as with the indigos in the previous unit, with every group of 4 using a different brown or a different indigo,or you can go completely scrappy with each triangle being different around each center square. You can see above in the
first
picture how I've added the first two triangles, and am using the notch
from the easy angle ruler to add my 3rd. I know these ones with all 4
corners the same are BORING!! That's why I put these second....it kept
you from quitting at the get go! :cD The second pic shows me
pressing
them out, all in a line on my ironing board. When pressing, I leave
them all connected by the chaining thread.....iron them in a row, and
then it is easy to clip them apart in between the units. The 3rd
pic
is 4 units....ready to be squared down. The method for squaring them is
the same as with the previous unit! (Go back and see the video if you
need help :c)
