Referring to Diagram 4, align
two marked white tone-on-tone
squares with opposite corners of an
aqua tone-on-tone 7^1 ∕ 4 " square. Sew
a scant^1 ∕ 4 " from drawn lines on both
sides of lines. Referring to Diagram 5,
cut apart on drawn lines to make two
triangle units. Press triangle units
open.6
Referring to Diagram 6, align
a marked white tone-on-tone
square with aqua tone-on-tone corner
of a triangle unit. Sew a scant^1 ∕ 4 " from
each side of drawn line. Referring to
Diagram 7, cut apart on drawn line.
Press white tone-on-tone triangles
open to make two Flying Geese
units. Each unit should be 3^1 ∕ 2 × 61 ∕ 2 "
including seam allowances. Repeat
with remaining triangle unit to make
two additional Flying Geese units.1
Use a pencil to mark a diagonal
line on wrong side of each white
tone-on-tone 3^7 ∕ 8 " square.

Referring to Diagram 1, layer
a marked white tone-on-tone
square atop an aqua tone-on-tone
37 ∕ 8 " square. Sew together with two
seams, stitching^1 ∕ 4 " on each side of
marked line. Cut apart on marked
line. Press open to make two triangle-
squares. Each triangle-square should
be 3^1 ∕ 2 " square including seam
allowances. Repeat to make 104
triangle-squares total.

Referring to Diagram 2, lay out
one triangle-square, two aqua
tone-on-tone 2^1 ∕ 2 × 31 ∕ 2 " rectangles, and
one white tone-on-tone 2^1 ∕ 2 " square
in pairs; sew together in pairs. Join
pairs to make a corner unit. The unit
should be 5^1 ∕ 2 " square including seam
allowances. Repeat to make 52 corner
units total.

Referring to Diagram 3, sew
together four triangle-squares in
pairs. Join pairs to make a Pinwheel
unit. The unit should be 6^1 ∕ 2 " square
including seam allowances. Repeat to
make 13 Pinwheel units total.
7
Repeat steps 5 and 6 to make 52
Flying Geese units total.8
Sew together a Flying Geese
unit and an aqua tone-on-tone
21 ∕ 2 × 61 ∕ 2 " rectangle to make a side
unit (Diagram 8). The unit should be
61 ∕ 2 × 51 ∕ 2 " including seam allowances.
Repeat to make 52 side units total.9
Referring to Diagram 9, lay out
four corner units, four side units,
and one Pinwheel unit in three rows.
Sew together units in rows. Join rows
to make a block. The block should
be 16^1 ∕ 2 " square including seam
allowances. Repeat to make 13 blocks
total.I like every step
of the quilting
process. I lean
toward traditional
piecing with a bit of
modern fl are.
