The pieced choice this month is an old fashioned favorite called Turkey Tracks. The background fabric is included. You supply a contrasting fall print fabric. Measure and piece carefully. The block you submit should measure 11.5" x 11.5"

Cut the background fabric as follows:
1.75" x 4" - cut 4
1.75" x 3" - cut 8
2.5" x 2.5" - cut 4
1.75" x 1.75" - cut 4

Cut fall print as follows:
5 1/8" x 5 1/8" cut 2 then cut once diagonally to yield 4 triangles
2.5" x 6.5" - cut 1
2.5" x 2/5" - cut 2
1.75" x 1.75" - cut 16

Draw a diagonal line from corner to corner on the WRONG side of the 16 dark print 1.75" squares. Place a marked square on one end of a 1.75" x 3" background rectangle, right sides together aligning the edges and sew along the drawn line. Trim seam allowance to 1/4" and press the print toward the corner.

Place a second dark print square on the other end of the rectangle and create the mirror image piece. Make 8 of these units.

*Nan's note - I saved the trimmed triangles and created small blocks from them to use in a community service pillow.
