Louise's block

This is Lousie's block. It's called Serendipity.

Here are the instructions she gave us:

Make 4 rail fence blocks 6.5 unfinished.

Top rail: medium fabric 2.5 by 6.5 inches

Middle rail: dark fabric 2.5 by 6.5 inches

Bottom rail: light fabric 2.5 by 6.5 inches

Stitch and press.

Cut 4 dark squares 5 inches each

Cut 4 light squares 5 inches each

Draw a diagonal line from bottom left to top right.

Place a dark square right sides together on the rail fence block matching raw edges on the right side. Sew on diagonal line.

Place a light square (rst) on a rail fence block matching raw edges on the top and left side. Sew on the diagonal line.

This will be a child's quilt,so the brighter the colors the better.

Louise will make two quilts from these blocks ... see blow.
