Piecing the Units Note: Use a 1/4" seam allowance for all stitching.

1. Cut each green 13 1/4" square and 7 1/4" square twice diagonally and use only the triangles shown to keep

the print upright in the quilt. Set aside the extra triangles for another use.

2. Layer (2) 3 1/2" x 6 7/8" white rectangles right side up and 2 rectangles wrong side up in 1 stack. Measure

3 1/2" from the bottom right corner and make a mark. Cut from the mark to the top right corner to make 2 right angled end pieces and 2 left angled end pieces.

3. Sew a medium blue triangle to the short bottom edge of each white angled piece. Press seam toward the blue

triangle. Stitch the pieced units to the short edges of the 2 large green triangles to make 6 1/2" x 12 1/2" E units. Press seams toward the green triangles.

E Unit — Make 2

4. Stitch a medium blue triangle to the short edges of the 4 small green triangles to make 3 1/2" x 6 1/2" units.

Press seams toward the blue triangles. Sew a 3 1/2" x 6 1/2" white rectangle to each pieced unit to make (4) 6 1/2" x 6 1/2" B units. Press seams toward the white rectangles.

Make 2 of each B Unit — Make 2 of each

5. Sew a medium blue triangle to the short edges of 6 white C triangles to make 3 1/2" x 6 1/2" units. Press seams toward the blue triangles. Stitch a 3 1/2" x 6 1/2" navy fish rectangle to each pieced unit to make (6) 6 1/2" x 6 1/2" C units. Press seams toward the navy rectangles. Set aside 2 leftover C triangles for another use.

Make 6 C Unit — Make 6

6. Stitch a medium blue triangle to each white A triangle to make (8) 3 1/2" x 3 1/2" triangle units. Press seams toward the blue triangles. Sew a navy fish 3 1/2" square to 4 triangle units to make 2 each 3 1/2" x 6 1/2" A units and reversed AR units, paying close attention to the positioning of the seam in the triangle unit. Press seams toward the navy squares. Repeat with white 3 1/2" squares and the 4 remaining triangle units to make 2 each D and reversed DR units. Press seams toward the white squares. Reversed Reversed

Make 8 A & AR Units D & DR Units Make 2 of each Make 2 of each

Completing the Quilt Note: Refer to the Exploded Quilt Diagram on the last page as needed throughout the following steps.
