chart for Red colorway on following page.) For block construction, Fabric numbers are the same for the two colorways.

Make sure to leave a 1 /4" seam allowance beyond the
outside edge of each border strip.

of Template C from the remaining wide strips of the border
print fabric.
1. Make Templates C and D from semi-transparent template
plastic. Draw the 1 /4" seam allowance line on the
template and a line down the center of the template.
