February 2020 - Shoo Fly (Elbow Room)

Make this classic block the easy way shown below, and your points will have plenty of elbow room.

Use high or low contrast fabrics, whatever colors you want. This scrap quilt will be awesome!

1. Cut 3" squares: 8 from the main fabric (shown yellow) and 3 from the other (shown black).

Cut two on the diagonal, as shown above.

2. Place the triangles as shown above. Sew. Press. 

Trim.

3. Assemble the block. Done!
