This is the last block of the quilt-along! We can't believe the summer has flown by so quickly. We are ending with a classic block that's just the right fit for a quilt made At the Seashore.

This post is part of our summer quilt-along series. Find the rest of the posts by clicking {here}.

FABRIC A

  • (1) 9” square, cut on the diagonal
  • (8) 3” squares
  • (4) triangles cut from Template 1*

FABRIC B

  • (1) 9” square, cut on the diagonal
  • (8) 3” squares
  • (4) triangles cut from Template 1

Template can be found in Printer Friendly file below.

Mark the wrong side of each Fabric A 3” square with a diagonal pencil line. Place right sides together with Fabric B 3” square. Sew ¼” away from each side of the marked line. Cut apart on the pencil line and press to the darker fabric. Trim to 2½” square. Repeat to make a total of (15) Fabric A + Fabric B half square triangles.

Join HST blocks in rows as shown. Add triangles to the end of rows as shown. Press rows in alternate directions so the seams nest. Join rows together.

Assemble Block - Sew Fabric A and B triangles to the sides of the center unit. Press.
This block measures 12.5” x 12.5” unfinished.

This block finishes at 12" x 12".
