PREPARING THE UNITS

12 Menagerie Tiger/Stitched Shadow

12 Menagerie Pencil/Stitched Shadow

12 Menagerie Lichen/Stitched Shadow

12 Menagerie Mermaid/

Menagerie Pepper

12 Menagerie Opal/Menagerie Pepper

1

Cut the 2" Stitched Shadow and

Menagerie Pepper WOF strips in half,

so that you have two shorter strips, the

same length as the WOFQ colour strips.

2

Match up the corresponding 2"

strips and sew together along the

long edge. Press the seams open, then

sub-cut each strip into six 3½" squares.

(See Pic A.)

HALF SQUARE TRIANGLES

For the quilt you will need the

following HST units:

3

Match up the corresponding

4" squares RST and draw a line

diagonally across one.

4

Sew ¼" each side of the drawn line

and then cut along the drawn line.

(See Pic B.)

5

Open out and press the seam towards

the darker fabric to finish. This will

give you two HSTs.

Repeat so that you have all of

the HST units needed. Trim each

HST to 3½".
