Shall we get started? Working on this weeks clue was so exciting for me. I hope you jump on that excitement wagon with me and roll along. There are THREE units this week so make sure you have the entire post. Here we go:
Unit E - Make 24 Unit E-1 Make 4 -- AS ALWAYS, read all the way through the clue before starting.
Unit E Unit E-1
Make 24 Make 4
All: Cut 52 - 2 x 5 green bricks.
Remember to use up the little ends left from previous cuttings.
You will need 120 - 2" blue squares and 60 - 2" purple squares. Sew into 60 blue, purple, blue (B/P/B) "threesies" .
Have a little fun now and then with your chains.
Controlled Scrappy/Constant: You will need 12 (6 WOF) blue strips and 6 (3 WOF) purple strips. Lay out as shown here;
Sew strips together and subcut into 60 - 2" "threesies".
All together now - Using the green bricks we cut earlier and the B/P/B "threesies" we just made, assemble 24 units using the following layout.
When finished, your unit should look like this and measure 5" square. (Sorry, I forgot to trim my block before taking the picture.)
Press, stack, and label as 24 E's. Set the remaining 36 B/P/B "threesies" aside as reserve. The 4 2 x 5 bricks will be used in the next unit.
Now for Unit E1: Make 4
Take the remaining 4 - 2" x 5" green bricks and sew them to a B/P/B "threesie" to get 2/3 of a Unit E as pictured here:
Unit E1 should measure 3 1/2" x 5". Press, stack, and LABEL the E1's. Pin and/or clip together. Set the remaining 32 B/P/B "threesies" aside as reserve.
One more unit? Sure --- You can do it.
Unit F - Make 24
True Scrappy/Scrappy: You will need 128 - 2" green squares and 64 - 2" blue squares.
Sew these into 64 green/blue/green (G/B/G) "threesies".
Controlled Scrappy/Constant: You will need 14 (7 WOF) green strips and 7 (3.50 WOF) blue strips.
Sew together with the layout pictured below and then subcut into 64 - 2" "threesies".
All together now -
You will need 24 of the reserved B/P/B "threesies" to put with your new G/B/G ones. Lay them out as pictured to the right:
Sew together, press, and measure (5" square).
Label as F and set aside along with the remaining 16 G/B/G "threesies".
