Choose 1 pink reproduction fabric and 4 other reproduction fabrics in civil war colors. (i.e. burgundy, navy blue, gray, white, and slate blue).

1. Cut 2 pink 2 5/8 inch squares.  Cut 4 more 2 5/8 squares out of 2 of the other fabrics (gray and burgundy in my example).

2. Cut 1 pink rectangle 2 5/8 inches by 6 7/8 inches.  Cut 4 more rectangles the same size from one of your other fabrics (white in my example).
 

3. From the last fabric selection,  cut 3 squares 4 1/4 inches each.  Cut each square diagonally twice to form 12 quarter-square traingles.  (see graphic 3)

4. From the same fabric,  cut 2 squares 1 7/8 inches each.  Cut each square diagonally once to form 4 half-square traingles.  (see graphic 4)
 
 

5. Sew 2 gray squares to each pink square to form 2 rectangles.  Sew the long sides of these 2 rectangles to either side of the pink rectangle to form the pink cross.  (see graphic 5)
 

6. Sew 2 of the white rectangels to either side of the pink cross.  (see graphic 6)
 
 
 
 

7.  Sew 2 of the quarter-square triangles to either side of each burgundy square to make 4 rows like are pictured in graphic 7.

8.  Attach one of the half square triangles to the top of each row made in step 7.  (see graphic 8)

9.  Sew 2 of the quarter-square triangels to either side of the 2 remaining rectangles to form 2 rows like that pictured in graphic 9. 

10.  Attach 2 of the burgundy and blue triangles from step 8 to 2 of the rows created in step 9 to form a large triangle.  (see graphic 10)

11.  Assemble the remainder of the block as pictured in graphics 11 & 12.
 
 


Your completed unfinished block will measure 12 ½ inches.
