1. Draw a line from one corner to the opposite corner on the reverse side of your eight background squares.

2. Use my easy sandwich method to pair each background square with a square cut for the spokes of your pinwheels. Each completed unit should measure 2-1/2" x 2-1/2" for the 8" block or 6-1/2" x 6-1/2" for the 24-inch block.

3. Sort your triangle squares, keeping like units together. Arrange the squares into four rows as shown, each row with four squares.

4. Sew the components of each row together. Press seam allowances in adjoining rows in opposite directions. Be sure to press carefully to avoid stretching the rows out of shape.

5. Sew the rows together to complete the block. The 8-inch (finished size) block should measure 8-1/2" x 8-1/2"; the 24-inch (finished size) block should measure 24-1/2" x 24-1/2".

6. Make additional blocks as needed for a quilt.
