12. Sew (4) Block Two rectangles and four Block One rectangles together, alternating them, to make Row Two. Repeat to make Row Four.
13. Sew the five rows together to make the Center Block. 14. Center one 3” x 89” Fabric K strip (Blue for Version 1 and red for Version 2) on one side of the Center Block and pin
in place. Start sewing the strip a ¼” from the top edge of the block and stop a ¼” from the bottom edge. DO NOT TRIM THE EXCESS. Repeat with the opposite side.
