Kansas Troubles II

In my previous post, I described the Kansas Troubles quilt block. Today is the same named block in a different variation. In this block there are squares, half square triangles and quarter square triangles. Choose a finished block size that is again easily divisible by 8.


squares and small half square triangles = block size ÷ 8
medium half square triangles = block size ÷ 4
quarter square triangles cut from squares = block size ÷ 2
OR cut from strips = block size ÷ 4

fabric 1 (light): 4 squares and 16 small half square triangles
fabric 2 (light green): 24 small half square triangles and 4 medium half square triangles
fabric 3 (medium green): 4 quarter square triangles
fabric 4 (purple): 4 quarter square triangles

Sew block together as shown below.

Happy quilting, 
Jeanne
