Triple Strip

      
     You will need a template

     Click on the 3 bars at the top left of the home screen to find the Template Sizes

   A 12 1/2" quilt block will use a 2 1/2" template
   but you can use any size you like to make the quilt block whatever size you want.

        Step 1:
Cut left strip – 2 ½” x refer to pattern for length. Here I used 7 ½” which made 2 blocks 
Cut middle strip - 1 ½” x same as above strip - You can use any length you like
Cut right strip   -  1 ½” x same as above       Recycle leftovers into more squares!
        
            








Step 2:
   
    Sew left strip and middle strip together. Trim the middle strip to 1”

                    

              
 Step 3:
          Sew the right strip to the middle strip.

         

   Step 4: 
 Lay the template on the seam as you see below.
                              

       

Step 5:
       Make sure you use the seam between the left and middle strips.  
         Using a rotary cutter cut out the square.
         Cutting out as accurately as you can will help avoid problems later.
         Continue cutting out more squares from your strips.
